    This video is HANDS DOWN, the BEST lore video summarizing 40k I ever seen! I'm deeply into the lore of 40k currently, so in my perspective is REALLY good.
    you literally beat down luetin09 and I shall use this video as future reference for anyone who knows a bit of 40k but struggles with the timelines and events.
    GREAT JOB!

    • @mickthelick5788
      @mickthelick5788 Год назад +1

      I agree, this as an exceptionally clear and comprehensive overview of the current lore and its unfolding narrative. Staying abreast of the latest developments can sometimes prove challenging, particularly for those who aren't deeply engaged with the tabletop game and thus lack a compelling reason to purchase the rulebooks. I find myself longing for Games Workshop to issue a lore-focused almanac with each new edition, a tome dedicated solely to the narrative, minus the game rules.

  • @TheMrFishnDucks

    • @mopanda81

      @Tiramizur Год назад

      Actually, because mechanicus teleported Ullanor instead of destroying during "the beast arise" series it makes sense that they might be the same planet. It was 32th millenium when the event was done.

    Honestly I love this layered story telling. First we have campaign books, which essentially are wrestling except slowed down to take place over hundreds of years rather than weeks. Then the event-books, big marvel-energy usually doing surprisingly interesting things with the stranger beats of the campaign books' story. Then the background books providing color and big vibes, though doubtlessly it's not all great generally where the good shit(tm) can be found.

    After getting that summary I'm desperately hoping the Imperium comes to its senses and realizes the Tyrannids are a truly major threat and gets some bloody allies. Votann, Aldarei, or even the Necrons. In fact I think if Guilliman and the Lion met with the Silent King they could come to an agreement to put their differences aside until the Tyrannids are dealt with while humanity finds or creates a suitable host species for the Necrons as part of the deal of their help with the Tyrannids.

    FYI, a lot of human Imperial prophets who turned out to be correct were in fact given their visions by EoM. We have have a handful of examples of the EoM or at least a part of him trying to warn the IoM about the future and what is to come. There is fluff to suggest that Cawl's improvements in the Primaris are not actually his idea. It seems they may have been originally intended for first generation of Astartes. But with the problems caused by trying to get the black carapace to work delayed the creation of Space Marines enough. That the EoM in his rush to start the Great Crusade decided the Astartes were good enough and they didn't need remaining enhancements.

      @@voland6846 Ah, makes sense, at least moreso than the European Public Prosecutor's Office. Though it would be funny to have the EU still being around.

    Since Traitor Astartes still need gene seed, so how does Black Legion gene seed work? Is it just a craps shoot to what a Chaos neophyte receives?

      Yup. They really don't care, being part of the Black Legion is a choice anyway - you renounce your old ties to a legion.

      They still can take other seed and grow it in mortal men for later bloody harvest. Or more arcane and messed up methods. Same way the Imperium reproduces more when they need it.
      But as for lineage year Black Legion don’t care

    The Empirium is starting to look a lot like the Emperor; a cadaver that just won't die.
