Guardsmen survives after 15 hours: Senior Veteran
Guardsmen survives after 15 years: Governor Militant
"fix bayonets!"
Translation: your six seconds started 2 seconds ago.
If your Krieg
"Fix bayonets!"
Translation: You are about to be forgiven by the Emperor
This is how guardsman stories should be. None of that "i doesn't scared of anything" bullshit. Make it a real human, with a real personality, with real fear.
Cadians only fear failing The Emperor.
You do know they're only barely human right? Baseline "humanity" in 40k can go without water for 2 weeks and doesn't need to eat for 3 months. Further, if we take the human psycher lore literally, you and I would be nulls. Since we're human and lack any psychic ability. Which would mean that we'd behave very differently from these weird psychic, god-fearing, space apes
"Ops a pretty cool dude he herps when he derps and doesnt afraid of anything" random amd irrelevent but you reminded me of this archaic meme
That final few seconds. That phrase: “well friend, here’s to another 6 seconds” made me smile
Here's to Eddard! We raise a glass in his honor and the honor of the millions who serve our Imperium and those who sacrificed all to serve it!
Without creators like this 40k would be unknown to most! Imagine the only content out there was in Warhammer+!!
I can feel the guardsman. Very impressed
Fantastic work Guardsman Medi. Reminds me a lot about '15 Hours' though I like how this is more hopeful and playful in tone (and I like the main character/pov char better too!😁). My salute from one writer to another...
When you drop into the shit for the first time its like something has grabbed your heart and is shaking it like a rat in the mouth of a large dog. Then at some point between then and feeling like you're going to throw up, the training kicks in and all those hours of being dead on your feet while being screamed at by your instructors as they hammered in the instincts and skills to survive pay off. Then in the blink of an eye its over
This was great!
Short but a solid hook of a story that keeps you listening intently.
Bravo
This could very easily be the first of a 3-7 part miniseries following this character through several battles, promotions, etc.
Couldn’t be happier to come across a channel! Keep it up! Fantastic work!
I knew what I signed up for .
Makes me wonder how many guardsmen are volunteers granted most of the lore has been retcon, since last I cared to keep up to date but aren't the majority of guardsmen conscripts like don't most people end up in the guard because of Imperial taxation
Like most things in the vast swathes of the Imperium, it varies from world to world. Some are conscripted so their planet can meet the Imperial tithe (like you mentioned), some do volunteer (like our hero Eddard here), or some may have committed a crime and must serve in the Guard as a sentence. It really varies from world to world and also varies from regiment to regiment.
Think about it like this, some worlds straight up will press-gang you into the military. While others, like the one this sap is from, has it setup where standard of living is so poor, that joining the guard is one of the only upwardly mobile things you can do, even if that means you'll never see your home again. Since even if your world's tithe does win whatever heinous conflict it's sent into, unless you're a Kreiger/Vostroyan or a few other named regiments, you're contingent would be given Imperial edict (basically ordered, since you'd view it as an act of god) to resettle the next planet you get deployed on.
It's a mixed bag out there, at least he was born in a tube like on Kreig!
Could you imagine coming across the emperium as us humans are now. The sheer uncaring nature of their regime to our veiw and how its been normal for them longer then all our civilizations combined. The aggressive hatred they would feel towards aliens and the like would scare and shock us to no end
The guardsmen are the most badass of all! They are not geneticly enhannsed to feel no fear like space marines, their not brainwashed into wanting to die for emperors forgiveness like the Krieg, they are the regular humans who fight bravely with more honor than anyone else with nothing but pure human fortitude!!!
There's a book out there that's similar to the first moments of a rookie guardsmen 15 hours by Mitchel Scanlon. The book had the all quiet on the western front feel, As well.
I actually hadn’t learned about the existence of “15 Hours” until I was about done writing this short story. I’m currently reading Grim Repast, but once I get through that I think that may be my next read!
this.....this is what im talking about, its so fkin good, i was so captivated by his story that i can almost imagine being there, take my subscription good sir and i hope for MANY more stories like this
Great authencity in the voice reading!
This is really well written and edited! Always love to see perspective from guardsmen. Keep up the good quality!
That was well worth listening to!
Very nice. The British accent and the almost light-hearted way he told his story made me think of the British Empire at its glory days.
Absolutely solid work. Please continue to write and create more stories. There is a void in everyone's life that can only be filled with stories and tales from the grim dark. And you, my friend, seem to have the skills to help fill that void. Much respect.
This is an excellent voice reader!
This story was made special by the actor.
Well done.
Yeah you’ve knocked this out the park, keep em coming
This was pretty good, keep at it! The ending is well done, you can hear more than just the sorrow in the characters voice.
Believe it or not. I just sat at a campfire with an Imperial Guardsman!
ok but who tf mastered this ; _ ;
Simply Glorious 👐🏾👐🏾👐🏾
Mate, ive spent 10.5 literal months of my 32 year alive, and more of others, listening to audible narrators. And you my friend are up there with some of the betters. Keep getting better, and keep your characters accents consistent. And you can do great.
Glad to have found you at 828 subs, im now 829.
Cant wait for more!
Well done ,a crafter of tales and characters truely fresh literary air. I breathed deep while my very very VERY broken leg foot ankle knee and a few ribs heal
I look forward to seeing more
Its good, I hope to hear more and looking forward to see your channel grow
Well done!!!
This is top tier!
This is good, I subbed.
More of that please
Thank you for this amazing vid!!
Very very well done, good to see the boys from thracian prime are doin... Ah, alive I suppose
I lasted 5! I was so close!
Needs more stories from Eddard.
this is great
buatiful story helped me run
This is fact not six seconds but 11 minutes and 25 seconds I feel lied to
Good stuff
Here's to another six seconds.
One of the best!
Keep it up bud doing great!
What is this channel this is awesome content here
This is the dogs. Subbed.
Interesting commentr/.narrative.
Accent unexpected for a guardsman tale. Many go for what they think a hive guardsman would sound like.
Many levels of a hive world. The Imperium needs what it needs.
Combat, real combat takes away the vaneer of life.
The tone does not reflect seen horrors.
Devil in the detail.
well done.
Hahahah my name’s talon
Hell yes dude
ABANDONED REASON!!
KNOW ONLY WAR!!🦅
I dont think you quite understand what "average life expectancy" means...
GUD FO OOMAN!
War of attrition! Lol
Did you ever get in trouble for used art and if so how did you deal with this?
So far, I have not gotten in trouble for using others’ art as I write in the description that all art used in the video belongs to their respective authors. That said, if an artist saw this video and wanted me to credit them specifically, I’d be more than happy to do that 😁
Have a like and subscribe commissar
👍👍
Mhm..id say this is a neat story.
Baller
cannot be that bad
Make more videos please? 😢
I promise more are on the way! Just need to find the time to write, record, and edit!
@@Guardsman_Medido a Cadia video, CADIA STANDS!
The story is very good, but the title and premise is just 13 Hours but more exaggerated.
Soooo this just sounds like a 14 hours ripoff
Take this as advice. Do you REALLY think a veteran guardsman from a hive would talk?
REALLY?
Remember today brothers
Today life is good
