It really says a lot about Von Strab's skills at leadership when you realize that he actually managed to do LESS damage to the Imperium by joining the Orks.
Black Templar: what is that thing? A Nova Cannon on tracks? Ad Mech: Yes but this is a secret Black Templar: The Emperor told me to use this toy and murder the enemy in His name so piss off!
I like the idea of the Techpriests delicately and diligently performing the rites to awaken the machine spirits of the Ordinatus Armageddon, when the Black Templars just kick the doors open blasting airhorns and shouting "Wake up, machine spirits, we got Orks to explode!"
"Throw the rough riders at them" "Sir they have significant barbed wire in front of their lines a cavalry charge won't make it" "No literally throw the rough riders at them"
"Sir, it appears we ran out of ammo and there's still surface forces needing fire support, are we supposed to return to the base and resupply?" "Throw Baneblades at them" "Sir, but how are we supposed to get them to surface?" "LITERARY throw them at them, drop them from orbit like we do with drop pods, also, load them with battle brothers"
@@appendixpower5538 well i did smash yarrick and a CRUSH THEM doomhammer into a gorkanaut once. it was softened up by the baneblade sized multi-melta though.
Listening to this, I'm reminded of a Battlefleet: Gothic (tabletop) opponent I once faced. We agreed tro a 2000 pts battle. My chaos fleet had some frigates, cruisers, heavy cruisers and a battlecruiser. My opponent had nothing but ram ships. It was a highly decisive battle. I simply couldn't kill the ram ships quick enough to keep anything bigger than a frigate alive long enough to do any real damage. He inflicted more damage on his own fleet than I did. For me, this will always encapsulate the Ork philosophy.

Kind of reminds me few times me and my friends played Table top 40k with "Logical rules" basically we gave people ammo counts. A unit could only fire so many times before it was out.... It was actually a valid tactic to bleed an enemy dry by throwing enough bodies at them that they ran out of bullets. Was fun, a nightmare to keep track of though.
@@saulwright5663 It wasn't to bad once we refined the rules a bit. Made "ammo dumps" or resupply spots. Or just flat out made the "last stand" type scenario in where the other races had nearly unlimited reinforcements while the imperials had unlimited ammo. After all Ammo does apply to other races if you think about it, at least those that use ranged attacks. We figured even if they were biological, there were limits how many it could fire before needing rest so to speak. It was a crazy project to be honest. Fun though, made more weird scenarios to play. Kind of more like the 40k Strike team missions where a handful of people take on entire armies.
This is why I love Da Orks. They always have the best lore. Chaos under Failbadon the Armless is a joke. The Blueberries are cute, but not much of a threat. The Necrons are cool, but seem to be used more as the looming threat. Tyranids are awesome but lack personality. Eldar only come in elf or S&M emo elf varieties, and their lore tends to reflect that. But Orks........Orks are a threat, they are badass, and they have personality. Only an Ork would go to hell for a vacation, beat up a demon prince by crushing his genitalia, and become the favored of a Chaos god. Only an Ork could come up with bat shit insane plans like what goes on in Armageddon. This is almost as great to listen to as the tale of Grimgor Ironhide.
Only an ork after being raided by a deamon price things was fun and just starts driving around in hope of getting another deamon prince only to get disappointed by the fact that the deamon aren't deadly enough and so to fix that he gets some boyz together and attacks the eye of terra
I agree. The boyz are this game changing threat because they want to be. If it would not have been for the data storage on Tyran the incoming Nids might have been unnoticed for another long long time. The blueberries do their invasions by stealth and diplomacy til you wake up and they run your planet. The Orks have this refreshing "we be coming down the road" attitude. They want to be seen, they want to be heard and want to be challenged and yet they will hardly be stopped
And yet none of them 'oomies evah tried to become a sorcerer of Gork & Mork. Them oomies are weird in da 'ead they are, maybe they should visit a pain boy, he will fix 'em right an' proper. An' if that keeps the doc away from me, well then, I will know Mork is looking out for me.
Humies are way to squishy and easy to be torn apart by painboyz. And unlike old man Thraka they need this funny pink thingie inside their skull to live on, so they can never hear Gork and Mork like boyz do!
36:35 here's the kicker. The Ork "patchwork craft" are actually more aerodynamic and well designed, than most if not all Imperial vessels. However, that says more about GW's design team than anything else.
Some random guy from the beyond The amount of power required of a thruster to lift such a massive brick with full cargo would just make the thruster fire off the thing and into the blue.

@@alexmoon3844 funny enough, it wasn't Vect or the Dark Eldar. Supposedly it was Eldrad. He foresaw the Orks ending up somewhere and killing hundreds of Eldar or something like that. So he redirected it toward a human world with psychic fuckery. Said planet was Armageddon. So Eldrad might be cosidered directly responsible for all that happened on Armageddon after, as well as the rise of one of the greatest Ork threats of all time.
Calling an Ark Mechanicus "Battleship" is quite an understatement. That thing is a mix of super heavy current era battleship (actually DAoT trade raider) and mobile forge world.

warp travel can be faster or slower than time. you can travel in the warp for what feels like a week and find yourself 500 years in the future barely aged a week. That If you get out. billions of ships have been lost in the warp. some throught demons and other through time.

Man that void war takes me back to Battlefleet Gothic Armada, although a kill/death ratio of 120/0 like that ambush which Admiral Peroll pulled off is something I can only dream of. I've seen the fucking greenskins smack two Dominator Class cruisers together and ramming into them, if that gives you an indication of the sheer fuckery those xenos will resort to.
In lore battles are much more brutal. That admiral probably had a battlegroup three or four times of what you can get in Bfg. And probably most of the kills were escort level ships
imperial thought of the day. "lets take a star ship class nova cannon, something usually used for cracking continents and strap it to a mobile ground platform. Why and how because we are the mother fucking imperium of man and if there is one thing we can agree on with the Orks. There is never enough darker"Ork thought of the day upon seeing the ordanise fire. "De'm Boy'z brought all de darker...lets steal it." ork horde cheers
Of course, the stations around the outskirts were probably destroyed by several ork battle ships warping into them. It most likely did more damage than the guns would have!
wait, would a nova cannon not just wreck a titan 's shield, but the titan and everything in a 25 I'm radius? a Nova cannon shot can wreck a tyranid hive ship with one shot after all
A direct hit would probably make a pretty hole in a hive city. About the size of the entire city in fact. Explosions are usually more brutal in a planet
A Nova Cannon in surface combat!? Holy shit, if that isn't overkill I don't know what is. Those things can gut light cruisers, I shudder at what one of those would do to ground targets!

At this point if Games Workshop wants to do something unique with an Orc Campaign they need to come up with one where the Orks fight out numbered for a change.
Of all the technologies of human construction the 2 things that absolutely cannot fall into orc hands are Duct Tape and WD-40. If the orc power of “if we believe it therefore it works” were to combine with the slogans “duct tape and WD-40 fix everything” and “when in doubt, duct it” the imperium would never be able to defend itself against Orc space hulks or any large machinery again.

Oberon. Saved the day on order of Grimaldus to commit the sacrilege of having the weapon forced out of it's sleep by one of his tech marines. To blow up the enemy mega gargant right before it won the battle by itself. Was a fun book to read. Even so Grimaldus was rather unpleased to be ordered to take command of a black templars company, as he wanted to remain with his brethren in space to bring the fight to the Orks. Right at the end he finally learned the lessons his sword brethren tried to teach him during the campaign. Pity all died but him. Also showed great the divide between the astartes chapters, when salamanders dropped to aid the harbour defence but refused to charge with the templars. As their only concern was to protect the squishy people shelter and not to charge the enemy to end a wargboss. Given how much that helped yarrik in the aeh.. first.... War it's kinda weird the salamanders didn't learn the importance of that.
That joke about the comparison between a Lada and a Ferrari is brilliant. Because a Lada can survive a nuclear strike, while a Ferrari can barely survive a common parking session. Brilliant! Also, I am indeed re-watching the entire Armageddon series a year later and posting a comment on the video. Brilliant!
HEY! I'll have you know, my gramps' old Lada was a very sturdy and highly reliable piece of work that worked perfectly fine for over three decades! A more appropriate low end comparison vehicle would be a Moskvich.
It is good that orks warped this way in. Imperium would not had benefited much from extra day of preparation or so. Loss of 20-50% of Orks force benefited Imperium far more in the long run.
The last shuttle had Yarrick, huh? It seems that the Beast wasn't going to allow his forces to encircle the planet until his favored enemy landed on the planet.
Good old Arch. You need to make a full on history channel. Just need a little budget for some animation you could make anything interesting. Keep up the good work!
I feel like the Armageddon system is important enough to warrant its own founding. A chapter for each planet. That’s only 5 chapters, should be “easily” doable for the Imperium.
"Destroyin' entire hummies fleet iz not a good waagh if ya don't trow a rok at them aftar da dakka" Main philosophie of the orks invaders during the fucking space equivalent of using a catapult with armed mens glue at the god damn projectile for analate the imperial navy
5:43 You'd be forgetting another simple fact. They are Orks! If ure plannin da biggezt and baddezt invasion ever, of course you needz da best opponent, o'wise it wudn't be a proper scrap wud it?
Now for the time when Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka came back to Armageddon for another go. (Orks can either win, die fighting or run away to have another go later) | 0:10 - KHAN!!! (echoes) | 5:02 - It's because he left quite an impression on him, he knew how to fight...he's an Ork, normal logic doesn't apply. | 20:10 - That must've given the speed freeks something to do. | 23:08 - Yeah, it's THAT event, like how the life eater virus got there. | 23:25 - A successor chapter of the Imperial Fists that HATES psykers. | 30:00 - Don't you mean "and only Gork and Mork alone would know"?...he's the prophet of the WAAAGH! | Ork ships are either "Kill Kroozers" or Space Hulks. | 48:04 - Wasn't it Ciaphas Cain who said "underestimating the Greenskins is a fast root to the grave? (or most likely their stomachs)" | So this is Part 1 of the 2nd Ork invasion?
It really says a lot about Von Strab's skills at leadership when you realize that he actually managed to do LESS damage to the Imperium by joining the Orks.

ehh the imperial Lightning Fighter and Xiphon pattern interceptor are rather aerodynamic

A direct hit would probably make a pretty hole in a hive city. About the size of the entire city in fact. Explosions are usually more brutal in a planet
Was that an issue?
Like, that happened?
@@nukclear2741 watch Helsreach
1 HOUR ARCH LORE VIDEO?! ALL PRAISE THE GOD EMPEROR!
Bravo Arch. This is absolutely brilliant.
Somehow i get the feeling that im sitting on a chair on terra in the emperium of man and im watching a tv show
Armageddon is Ullanor! Terra is flat! Wake up sheeple!
*waking up intensifies*
Skepsis Rollins thats what Slaanesh tells you
A Nova Cannon in surface combat!? Holy shit, if that isn't overkill I don't know what is. Those things can gut light cruisers, I shudder at what one of those would do to ground targets!
4 years late, but have you watched Helsreach? He animated it pretty great...
@@JennyGormanRitter"Engine... kill" *Everyone within 25 km goes blind*
@@TheGreatThicc pretty much but it was great lol
Again, thank you so much for making these videos Arch. I'm pretty well versed on 99% of 40k Lore as a fellow lore geek, but I still love your videos simply because your commentary is not only concise and educated, but also hilarious. Please keep making these lore videos! Also please let us know if/how we can donate to help your channel thrive. I would gladly donate and I'm sure most of your subs feel the same way!
Can you please make a lore on the Dreadnoughts?
The Death Corps of Krieg may fight well in Armageddon right?
Maybe they can find in a second home.
Angry power armored little muffins.
An apt description of the Imperial Fists.
That was BRILLIANT Arch. Thanks very much for this series. I am very much enjoying your delivery of it. MORE PLZ :-D
Going to be a bit of a snob here,,, But how dare you compare the Eternal Crusader as a mere battle barge!
Ad Mech Engineseers: "It will take years to awaken the machine spirits of such a powerful and complicated artifact"
Black Templars: "Wakey Wakey, got Orkz to breaky"
"Wakey wakey eggs and dead people'
These videos are amazing and so much better now with all this amazing art to accompany it, thanks Arch!
an hour long video from Arch? today is a good day
Arch! Is there any chance you would do some lore on 8th edition?
My Tralala MOAR LORE
Adeptus Kekstodes,
NO! Everyone uses the EoM as an excuse to be as big a dick as possible. A lot like God. Remember the EoM is a little busy keeping the Warp from [flooding] Holy Terra and being.. well... not entirely dead or alive.
In the grim darkness of the present there is only Age of Sigmar.
I hope you catch the cancer. Oh wait! You play Age of Shitmar.
well emperor has been on the golden toilet 10000 years and all of his loyalist sons disappeared with out a trace and 10000 years later Robert comes along says dad I'm home and emperor might be even more pissed that he came back 10000 years later after so much shit went down he cares he just fucking pissed
At this point if Games Workshop wants to do something unique with an Orc Campaign they need to come up with one where the Orks fight out numbered for a change.
personal theory that I believe is that they mad the jump into system as well as they did because the orks believe so much in da boss
Of all the technologies of human construction the 2 things that absolutely cannot fall into orc hands are Duct Tape and WD-40. If the orc power of “if we believe it therefore it works” were to combine with the slogans “duct tape and WD-40 fix everything” and “when in doubt, duct it” the imperium would never be able to defend itself against Orc space hulks or any large machinery again.
Thinking about, missed the chance to name this series "waagh for armageddon"
Right off the bat, Angron theoretically attempts to sneak in Arch's office, but Arch no Bad boy get the f### out!
I love your story telling style, keep it up you keep me interested and busy. More of this please
damn mate, i'm now as drunk as fuck (casual friday), i love your videos especially your 40k lore videos, even though i'm not a gw slave.
But your anticipation on this theme is just outstanding, love your humor especially your dark (scepitacal) humor which is just a bless. I can just call GG on your videos.
With best regards Sebastian koehler
P.S.: Sorry for my grammar, i am a german therefor i try to get perfection
Drunk *check*
Dark humour *check*
Hard on for correct grammar *check*
Has a bad pornstar name with a ö in it *check check check*
yepp you are a german alright :p
Damn you, Diomedes. I will never be able to take the word "Baneblade" serious again D:
These kinds of videos are definitely some of my favorites!
Oberon. Saved the day on order of Grimaldus to commit the sacrilege of having the weapon forced out of it's sleep by one of his tech marines. To blow up the enemy mega gargant right before it won the battle by itself.
Was a fun book to read. Even so Grimaldus was rather unpleased to be ordered to take command of a black templars company, as he wanted to remain with his brethren in space to bring the fight to the Orks. Right at the end he finally learned the lessons his sword brethren tried to teach him during the campaign. Pity all died but him.
Also showed great the divide between the astartes chapters, when salamanders dropped to aid the harbour defence but refused to charge with the templars. As their only concern was to protect the squishy people shelter and not to charge the enemy to end a wargboss.
Given how much that helped yarrik in the aeh.. first.... War it's kinda weird the salamanders didn't learn the importance of that.
Love it! :D
Episode 2: Da Returnz of da Orkz! xD
That joke about the comparison between a Lada and a Ferrari is brilliant.
Because a Lada can survive a nuclear strike, while a Ferrari can barely survive a common parking session. Brilliant!
Also, I am indeed re-watching the entire Armageddon series a year later and posting a comment on the video. Brilliant!
Nova Cannons, when a bainblade is to small and an exterminatus is to big
arch my mechadendrites are happy to hear about this war.
your videos are best to listening when painting.
HEY! I'll have you know, my gramps' old Lada was a very sturdy and highly reliable piece of work that worked perfectly fine for over three decades! A more appropriate low end comparison vehicle would be a Moskvich.
It is good that orks warped this way in. Imperium would not had benefited much from extra day of preparation or so. Loss of 20-50% of Orks force benefited Imperium far more in the long run.
Its very gratifying seeing an arch video with half a million views
You just have to love the Orks for being so stupid, yet so effective
Hour long Arch Lore video....this is a good day.
Thank you for entertaining my mind while i work. Cheers!
Great series loving it so far and all of your 40k is great keep up the great content and the way you get your points across makes me laugh
Arch made a funny. Hey man that was pretty good @ around the 30 second mark
The last shuttle had Yarrick, huh? It seems that the Beast wasn't going to allow his forces to encircle the planet until his favored enemy landed on the planet.
Good old Arch. You need to make a full on history channel. Just need a little budget for some animation you could make anything interesting. Keep up the good work!
This is soooo good !!
This new series is fucking awesome!
Glory to the Emperor’s exquisitely cute ears!!!
And also The Black Templars!!
Oh and also Arch
Space hulks are basically the chaos gods’ chewing gum
I feel like the Armageddon system is important enough to warrant its own founding. A chapter for each planet. That’s only 5 chapters, should be “easily” doable for the Imperium.
An option to do a video on would be space hulks themselves if the information on them is available. Known ones, possible origins, memorable ones, etc.
That fucking Commisar is Mork's avatar, has to be. *GOD I LOVE THIS FUCKING UNIVERSE*
"Destroyin' entire hummies fleet iz not a good waagh if ya don't trow a rok at them aftar da dakka"
Main philosophie of the orks invaders during the fucking space equivalent of using a catapult with armed mens glue at the god damn projectile for analate the imperial navy
5:43
You'd be forgetting another simple fact.
They are Orks!
If ure plannin da biggezt and baddezt invasion ever, of course you needz da best opponent, o'wise it wudn't be a proper scrap wud it?
"Angry power armored little muffins" I will never be able to look at Space Marines the same way again ..
"Angry power armoured little muffins..."
I love that line.....
Love these vis Arch , keep up the good work.
Now for the time when Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka came back to Armageddon for another go. (Orks can either win, die fighting or run away to have another go later) | 0:10 - KHAN!!! (echoes) | 5:02 - It's because he left quite an impression on him, he knew how to fight...he's an Ork, normal logic doesn't apply. | 20:10 - That must've given the speed freeks something to do. | 23:08 - Yeah, it's THAT event, like how the life eater virus got there. | 23:25 - A successor chapter of the Imperial Fists that HATES psykers. | 30:00 - Don't you mean "and only Gork and Mork alone would know"?...he's the prophet of the WAAAGH! | Ork ships are either "Kill Kroozers" or Space Hulks. | 48:04 - Wasn't it Ciaphas Cain who said "underestimating the Greenskins is a fast root to the grave? (or most likely their stomachs)" | So this is Part 1 of the 2nd Ork invasion?
Loving the Armageddon lore arch keep it up
