The Dark Eldar lady at the end was Lady Malys, the reason why she was talking to her own reflection (and gained a clown nose and the ability to invoke Bazinga) is because in place of her heart is a shard of Cegorach's own crystal heart allowing the Honk God to fuck with her in various ways but also making her naturally quite a bit more powerful than the average Drukhari.
There is also a 3 part miniseries called Behemoth, which is TTS Canon that follows the misadventures of Kryptmann and the Deathwatch. It's on, I believe, the channel Eliphas
Yep you remember right about Kryptman. His gambit also backfired horribly because the Orks immediately repopulated the planets, and they fought the Nids for a while until the Nids won... and became stronger as a result.
And then died on Baal after the Imperium was given time to recover and the Cicatrix Maledictum temporarily severed its control and straight up killed a bunch of its biomass. So no, it didn't backfire.
6:01 Funny that you bring that up, the Drukhari are actually the most technologically advanced of all the Eldar. Which makes some sense since Commorragh was a "city" from the ancient Eldar empire and came out as unscathed as it could be. In comparison we have the Exodites, who are just Eldar Amish, and of course the Craftworlders who, in Arch's immortal words are: "space gypsies". Harsh but not unfoundedly untrue...
Kryptman also started a funny thing called the Octarius war. He thought to himself "how do i kill one ravenous, devouring bird and a giant green war loving bird with a single stone?" And decided to lure hive fleet leviathan into the Ork Octarius Empire. Yes, for some reason he thought that sending the Tyranids, who grow more powerfull on bio mass, against the quickest repopulating species in the galaxy was a good idea. At the same time he thought it was a good idea to send hive fleet Leviathan against the species which grows stronger on brutal, close quarters fighting and war. Basically all that happened was that Huve Fleet Leviathan got an absolute ASS TON of biomass, allowing them to produce new powerfull Bioforms like Norn Emmisarys and Neurothropes whilst at the same time making the Orks grow larger and stronger aswell as making them extremly fertile and shedding a crapload of spores everywhere, along with the built up WAAAAAAGH! Energy attracting Orks like Ghazkhull from all over the galaxy to come and fight
@@TheLegitWeebs Well the options were "die now" or "delay this until we can actually deal with it maybe". So there really wasn't much choice, and people give Kryptmann too much shit.
Not actually true, Hive Fleet Leviathan lost a TON of a biomass because much of it was busy with the Orks. A large portion of it was destroyed at Baal, the Cicatrix Maledictum literally crippled it and destroyed much of it as well. So delaying was the correct choice.
@@Gustav_Kuriga yeah true but the result of the Octarius war is a big part of why the Tyranids have become the main bad guy in 10th edition and loosing at Baal was more than probably made up for with all the Ork corpses at Octarius itself. And even if you do beat the Tyranids they'll just eat their own dead and regain the biomass, plus i didn't see the Norn Emmisary before this so they definietly got enough Biomass to make some spicy new evolutions. Plus the Orks that survived the war are hardened beyond belief by the brutal nature of it so they'll be a bigger threat to the Imperium now, especially if they all team up with Ghazzy. Um not saying it was completely dumb of Kryptman to do it but it put the Imperium in a compromising position, especially considering all the Death Watch and Blood Angels that died during it
Oh, and just so you're aware, people give Kryptmann a ton of shit for denying the Tyranids the biomass they need to recover their losses, but don't say anything about the Blood Angels doing THE EXACT SAME STRATEGY. And guess what... it FUCKING WORKED.

Mission failed doesn't even begin to cut it lol. I guess now they know to never do that again.

That's probably one of the most undesirable outcomes possible in that situation. Good job Kryptman.

Kaldor Draigo going "NO SUN" is a reference to The Begun of Tigtone, which in itself may be prime react material
Next special will be Russ playing a baby-game with the Dark Eldar. It's a very fun one.
Gordon Ramsey? Nah, man. That's Lord Gordonus Ramesses of the Adeptus Culina to you. XD

Looks like the lore is more nuanced here xD. Someday I'll have to read the story myself and judge it.
You're welcome world, I will now do 10 times more sexy dances.
