Come to Mars, become a Skitarii. Cons are you become a horrible mechanical monstrosity, designed only to kill. Pros are you become a horrible mechanical monstrosity, designed only to kill!
And bathe in the mechanical wonders and glory of the Omnissiah!
There is also the issue that you will need to surrender the majority of your cognitive functions...but then again, you weren’t *really* using those very much in the first place!

@@theomnissiah-9120 yeah, the have
there are far worse fates in the 41st millennium than becoming a horrible mechanical monstrosity

Emperor: “Let’s try turning it on and off again.”
9 times out of 10 that solves it... 9 times out of a hundred the user is the problem... 1 in a hundred it needs to be fixed. Often the device was designed to fail like that.
Edit: I know this from the tens of thousands of devices I have fixed... the worst was a standard USB connector that *someone* connected into an ethernet port... I needed pliers to get them out... :|
_"Here's your problem--too much dust got into this thing's knee actuator. I'll take care of it. Hey, Machine Spirit. You okay in there?"_

"Marvelled at their own magnificence as they gave birth to A.I" Nice matrix ref there :D
Or was the matrix making a WH40k reference?
Mind blown!
"And for a time, it was good."
Animatrix reference!
Its funny you guys are trying to point to theatrix when 40k came first. Yeah ok bois

How I feel explaining this quality of video to others. "It has purdy words and makes ya feel funny"
It has funny words, and makes ya feel purdy, too!
words purdy, feel funny
Jesus Christ furries can you stop butchering the English language you weirdos?
What the feth manner of back-berth Agri-world did _this_ thread slip off of???
That is the Holy Spirit of the Emperor you feel, my child. Let it in and illuminate you. The Emperor protects.
You are the ONLY one who pronounces Skitarii correctly. Thank you Oculus. Thank you so much.
did the Mechanicum always had the skull emblem or was it adopted when the emperor arrived?
@@phreakazoith2237 I think they always had it
@@Domainz77 thanks. do you its meaning in connection with the Mechanicum then?
@@phreakazoith2237 I think it could be in relation how the Mechanicum views flesh, the skull being split in two with one half Bone and the other being overcome with Machine and the Cog surrounding the skull could be a symbol that Machine encompasses all? I'm grasping here but that what I think it means.
@CreedOfHeresy i think that may actually have to do with his accent, considering english isn't actually his first language
Scrutiny of the pure is edification, chronicler. Fear not the eyes of the Ordos, for they gaze ever upon the Emperor's Justice.
With just a little collateral damage during the application of the Emperor's Justice.
It is good to see the historator survived his ordeal with the ruinous powers
I was turned into a servitor, but I got better.
THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE ANCIENTS IS BEYOND QUESTION.
AVE OMNISSIAH, PROTEGIT IN BELLUM ET PAX.
I don't know what this means, but I thumbed up anyway :)
@@7F0X7 Hail the Omnissiah, Defend us in War and in Peace, I think.
My Latin isn't the best.
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither and you will beg my kind to save you.
But I am already saved.
Even in death, I serve the Omnissiah.

Adept i believe youll find it to be cant
@@franciosdeaeruiu7555 binaric. Do you even exload?
@@franciosdeaeruiu7555 Both Canting and Chanting are acceptable descriptions. Canting in particular carries more negative connotations alongside implications of it being unneeded or otherwise superfluous religious jargon. The priesthood does not care however, and so you'll often find them using the term in otherwise positive connotations.
31:05 "and consistently work to develop newer and better armaments for the legiones astartes and the exertis imperialis"
So we can say that the cult mechanicus at large(smaller subsections or individuals excluded) is in breach of the treaty of olympus mons given that for the last 10 millennia they have done more to inhibit said developments rather that facilitate it.
Develop to become in par with mars but not beyond it. Relatively earth tech will be newer and better if they develop it to become same with mars. Surely Big E can do that but its better a whole planet do it for him.
And now, as it comes as no surprise to this lowly acolyte, oculus had the best mars/mechanicus lore vid there is.
speaking of man walking on Mars for a long time...may I point to the slogan of Mars's univerity in M4: "Knowledge brings fear" as seen in Futurama? I bet Dr Farnsworth's head was key to Mars's survival during the Old Night.
6:52 Ok now, you're just pulling my leg.
*One googling later*
THE EMPEROR PROTECTS
Oh you haven't lost your mind and/or got blammed by Inquisition yet? Cool.
What are you blabbering on about? Our Chronicler has just been mindwiped!
Also, Girlyman was on his side, the Inquisition will not silence him so soon... >.>
He lost his mind an episode or two back reading REDACTED, luckily for us he had a backup copy and someone on hand to revert it.
He would get blammed but big daddy smurf is looking put for him.
Almost almost.
My favourite moment with the admechs is in BfG 2, when the fabricator meets trollzin. I always imagine this:
Cawl: "but *you* are an abomination."
Trayzin: "bruh..."
My fav was how he replied... at least they had to drag me in chains to have my soul given for a machine body....
Exactly... Trayzyn grabbed cawls mic before it hit the floor denying Cawls premature micdrop and put it immediately into his stasis collection to comemorate returning fire with 65 million year old repartee, inflicting such a searing gauss tech atom ripping burn.
"[Respectfully, I am a much more aesthetically-pleasing abomination than yourself. Look at all of those metal tentacles. Quite unsavory.]"
Your videos are the best and most immersive 40k lore videos out there. Keep up the good work!
Phew. I was worried you wouldn't come back after that last one. Or was this pre-recorded? Oh no...
"This is Chronicler Imperia, signing out..."
They've all been prerecorded....
Dun Dun Dun!
What a coincidence! I was just wondering about the mechanicum earlier this morning. Thank you, historitor!
Exceptional construct of information. Poetic and poignant. I love this shit, well done. Great choice of artwork.
There are those in the Imperium who mock the sons and daughters of Mars as little more than myopic techno-fetishists. At the same time, there are those within the Adeptus Mechanicus who sneer at the huddled masses of mankind as being little more than ignorant, barely sentient bags of weak flesh. Both are wrong.
For the universe *in its entirety* is the glorious creation of the Machine God. Mankind may be mere flesh, but flesh too is one of the Machine God’s holy mechanisms. Technology is a thing of ceaseless wonders, but what purpose could technology have without life to give it meaning?
To see the *true* path of the Machine God, you need only consider our Beloved Emperor. Our Omnissiah.
Imperium and Mechanicus.
Terra and Mars.
Emperor and Omnissiah.
Man and Machine.
*This* is the Machine God’s grand design. To ignore one in favor of the other is to blaspheme against His creations. Only when joined in unity and equality do they serve His will.
Praise be the Omnissiah, brother.
The Omnissiah protects.
Yes. And this Machine God locked beneath the Holy surface of Mars shall one day return. To lead you all to the truth you so feverishly desired. :)
and yet, these religions seem to exist in a tense harmony. If the Emperor's status as Omnissiah was ever successfully challenged....
Zoey Martin Both Mechanicus and Imperium have a vested interest in seeing the Emperor as a God. Any knowledge against this submitted truth will always be surprised, even by the most zealous
Your lore vidoes are so good, Such a great narrative voice and good lore knowledge.
The "Vaults of Moravec" is an obvious reference to computer scientist and artificial intelligence pioneer Hans Moravec.

Any video that boasts the word "effluvia" definitely deserves a thumbs-up!
Any comment pointing this out also needs a thumbs up
Just noticed the giant skull on the Martian surface seen from space.
Curien247 Yeah, man- isn’t that the coolest?
Painting my Knight, listening to Oculus, it's a good day.
Phenomenal video as usual chronicler. Would love to see a video on the inquisition
This is a masterpiece! immersive and informative, brilliant! I am glad that the emperor's glory brought me here!
Blessed are you beloved chronicler! The light of our blessed omnissiah shows through you! I call attention to the several request of others of my priesthood to examine the mighty embodiment of our faith: The Legio Cybernetica and the war automata they shepherd with grace into the battlefield !
Can‘t wait for the time when thou will compile your record about the military forces structure and tattics of the Mechanicum and of the many other imperial organization left to analise; (first among them the legiones astrates and the legio custodes)
Jokes aside: great video ad always, imd say even better (i’ve like the quality has improved in time and i’m glad to see you keep improving).
You would think at the height of "The Golden Age of Technology", that VENUS would have been made habitable or at least survivable. It seems in almost every sci-fi franchise, Venus is utterly ignored, with desperately few exceptions.
Venus can be cooled with a planetary solar shade. The cooling process would take centuries after the shade is built. But from there things get very easy because now you can actually touch the planet. Mars would benefit from this in a somewhat different fashion. Having its own solar shade, would protect Mars from solar winds and in both planets cases the solar shades would also act as massive solar farms providing power to fuel industry OFF WORLD allowing Earth to remain green Venus and Mars following in a similar fashion although Mars might be easier in that it would not be covered in a layer of DRY ICE.
I know WH40K was created in a time when this information was not readily available if at all. But It is hard to envision a humanity even thousands or years removed being so irresponsible as to not insure that every planet they set foot on could fend for itself should the need ever arise. But then the Games Workshop overarching impetus is "just how bad could things get even if everyone has to be absolutely and unfathomably stupid to make it happen".
Gosh I love how you debate why the Emperor didn’t just conquer Mars and make sure the imperial truth was spread there. It’s a valid point that it might have spent so many resources as to not be worth it. Although it hindsight, considering the religion everything has become, and how such a war might have hardened the emperor even more to anyone deviating from his wisdom...
Ahem, hindsight and ten thousand laws of heresy that I have committed there.
This is the part of 40k history that fascinates me the most
Your voice is quite mellifluous, and the quality of your narration is unsurpassed. DIS HUMIE MAKES DA WURDZ GOOD

Great job. This roleplay is a nice touch and the subtle soundtrack makes it even more immersive
You illuminate us, this is a shrouded point in imperial history to be certain. Thank you for your hard work on this.
This video was great! Interesting stuff that happened with Kelbor Hal, I wonder what kinda stuff is in those vaults...
I'm so glad I ran into this channel. Very, very, well written and spoke of.
Knowledge is indeed power, but wisdom is the power to control knowledge.
And experience is the wisdom that holds the power to control the knowledge!
Another voice that could not possibly agree more: Knowledge is power. Long live the knowledge of Euclid, Al-Khwarizmi, Descartes, Cantor, & Gauss!
By the Will of the Machine God you live! We missed you Historator!
Finally a narrator who gets it, thank you !!
You did it again. Keep up the great work! WE ARE THE EMPEROR’S CHOOSE

I miss my finger. Why DID I have it replaced with a quill?
Ink for the Ink God! Quills for the Quill Throne!
You’re my go-to channel while I’m tinkering at my hobby table.
I love returning to this! Thank you for all of your efforts, Oculus! You're the best!
Such detail into such an ancient past, it is truly a wonder to have such wonderful chroniclers serving the Imperium
Love the narration style you use. Great info I look forward to the next video
IT’S MY BOYS, PRAISE THE OMNISSIAH!!!!
Really glad I found your chronicles sir. Some have the knowledge some the dark humour and others the voice , you however have all these emperor granted boons .
Accurate, well researched and excellently presented data on his most glorious endeavour that is the galaxy of grim dark
Ave imperator . O.M
I love that this video, compared to the others, has that very slight bucket audio sound to it, as if you were now speaking through a vox instead of directly.
It is an incredibly deep touch, and shows the dedication and work you put forth. It is inspiring.
I just found your channel, I hope it grows! Keep at it I believe in you brother
Thank you so much for this masterful history of the Mechanicum. Your prose is concise and engaging, and a true joy to experience. Well done!
Praise be to the Omnissiah for this wonderful creation!
One of my favorite 40k stories expertly told, thank you!
Easily the best lore video series around, is a dark angels video coming?
It's a secret !! But I hope for information on the 1st Legion
Praise the Omnissiah for we have been blessed today by that which we hold most dear. Knowledge! and 37 minutes of it at that. Ave Imperator gloria in excelsis terra.
This feels like a channelled message for me this is what happened on Mars and is what they are trying to do on earth thanks you
Once again an amazing video sir! Well done.
As always top notch in univers lore talk !
This channel is amazing, absolutely amazing. Thank you so much.
This was a gem to listen too. Well done.
Love your work mate! PLEASE MAKE MORE!
also if you could make something about the T'au that'd be great
This is an excellent lore vid, very fun! Thanks for making it and sharing with us.
Top work, I feel like i'm being educated with every new Video.
One of the best yet. Marvellous stuff
Praise be to the Omnissiah
Praise the Omnissiah!
Fantastic work as always.
The best part of my day.
Aaahhh good. Bring out the T O A S T E R BROTHER
Thanks for the upload dude! Can’t wait to watch it!
crazy that it took so long for humans to make sentient machines
This is really excellent. Thanks so much.
Was it written somewhere that the mechanicum knew they would ultimately lose if the emperor decided to conquer them?
I aways found that confusing, they gots titans! Didn't they see him coming, was blowing up of stuff up during reunification
@@grantaum9677 A war with the Imperium, even if they won it, would cost too much for very little benefit. The Emperor was hell-bent on unifying humanity, so even if they kept him from annexing Mars, he’d just come back later even stronger, while they’d be weaker than they started out. Plus, even if Titans were still such a trump card, he could’ve annexed or conquered other forge worlds and start making them himself.
Praise The Man-Emperor of Man!
Hear screeching feminists
Just how awesome can a youtube channel even be??

ERROR. NOOSPHERIC COMMUNION WAS SPREAD SHORTLY BEFORE THE BINARY SUCCESSION.

keep up the good work and keep doing what you enjoy naturally
You pronounced Skitarii correctly! Subbed.
YES! I have been waiting for this since I found your channel. For the Omnissiah!
Good stuff as always. Thanks:)
Great narrative! Awesome Job!
I wish we could see all of this in a movie.... but I don't want HW getting their shit covered hands on 40K
Oculus…, you’ve got talent my brother. I enjoy your vids “TONS”….💀😎💀…
Please keep up the great works…👍🏼
Today was the first time I wore reading glasses, for working on my PC.
Me: *putting the glasses* "From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel, I aspired to the purity of the blessing machine."
I wish I could like this video more then once.
I like the intro 👍
Awesome.... really enjoyed 👍

Okay Morpheus...🤣
There is so much heresy in the first minutes...
One correction- the noosphere was not invented until just before the horus heresy, and only came into widespread use after the fall of mars.
Wait, I thought the knowledge of the noosphere was lost during the, uh, literal fall ( to the lava ) of the Magma City.
@@CryingZombie666 the (re)inventor died (as the "News-sphere" is just a form of augmented Reality combined with sci-fi bluetooth"). Her knowledge was submitted to the data repositories though. The Noosphere is widely used and even essential to "modern" Techpriest life.
@Awesomotron2k Where is this info from?
What are these mechanovores?
Brilliant
Say what you will about the mechanicum. They tried. And they succeeded.
