Such a tragedy. Dreadnoughts are revered not only for their capabilities in battle, but for the wisdom and knowledge they carry for a chapter. This is truly a loss of more than flesh, but of culture, honor, and knowledge. Such a great scene.
the loss of such a connection to history is terrible- not every chapter has Bjorn, a dreadnaught so ancient that the inqusitors who didn't instantly bow learned very shorty that they should have. Bjorn saw god, in person, which is more than they can say
Halo producers on why “master chief” removes his helmet so much: you can’t have an emotional connection without showing your face every scene they’re in Brother Ignis simply serving his duty:
Hadrael fr had some emotions when he lost Ignis, you can tell that he wanted Ignis to live on, but couldnt do anything for him after the power gave out.
look at the series "helsreach" that one man created the series was beautiful sad awesome and it made me cry at the end and never once did we see there faces
Ignis was revered and respected so much he was given a dreadnought, and until his last moment, he was still the noble Ignis, and not a black rage berserker
Dreadnoughts are revered warriors, they have lived for thousands of years of combat experience and wisdom to give. There is nothing that hurts a space marine or a guardsman more then to learn of one’s death. To lose a dreadnought is to lose an Angel
White Templar almost lost 15 of their Venerable Dreadnought against the tyranid when their homeworld got invaded. It became even worst when the Tyranid attack the Gene Vault, all of their dreadnoughts sprang into action protecting their chapter's future.
I now fully accept that whenever a dreadnought is awakened, it feels compelled to give a little speech that everyone present just kinda has to be like "mhm, mhm, yeah, ok , that's great lets get you on the battle field."
Well considering most dreadnought are kept in suspended animation for decades or centuries at a time and are usually the chapters finest, wisest, and oldest brothers I think a bit of ostentatious grandstanding is warranted
That might actually be a thing. Part of the Hypno-Indoctrinaion that Space Marines undergo are subliminal code phrases that can trigger their bodies to respond in certain ways. Thats why Space Marines have "Litanes" - prayers/vows that can do a number of things. Heal Faster. Suppress Pain, Remove Fear and increase Hate beyond all reason.
@Chicken12Saladwhen a big brother is like that he’s vulnerable in the back little brother had to do what he had to do to disconnect the ship but it left ignis open to vulnerability
Imagine if your great great great grandfather was somehow still alive. He knew how things were before and the stories of everyone in the family that has passed on. Now imagine that it was tradition to bring everyone’s kid to see him only for him to die before you partake in that tradition. That’s how much it hurts to have a dreadnought fall
Between the “yes little brother” and Ignis’ wish to see Baal one last time really hits in the feels more than 95% of movies and shows I’ve seen over the last 10-15 years. Despite being confined and slumbering in a metal casket for years at a time Ignis has more humanity and a sense of devotion to his brothers and the Imperium than every planetary governor or corrupt bureaucrat 10x over.
That tech marine was about four seconds away from having to excuse himself to "quickly take care of something" from the sounds of his praising the machine spirit
I’ve said this before but I still think it would be one of the greatest 40k games ever if made right: a game where you play as varying dreadnoughts from different legions who tell their stories from the heresy. There would be missions both set closer to the “modern” 40k setting where you play as the dreadnought and then others where you’re playing as their younger self in some of the most chaotic and harrowing battles of the heresy era. Beta Garmon, Calth, Terra, Pluto, Istvaan, even events from The Scouring like the Iron Cage all unfolding before their eyes. Could you imagine how incredible an FPS game set in such titanic battles would be? Maybe I’m the only one.
@@UGNAvalon kind of like how The Bastion does it. Whenever you die the narrator says something like, “No, wait, that’s not how it went.” It would be a nice touch considering that many dreadnoughts are of varying degrees of mental decline.
Oh that would be amazing!! Imagine you start as a normal space marine & as you said as it shows in the future your a dreadnought. The game plays all the way through as a normal marine then your dreaded up & play as a dread till the end..$$$$$ I'd love it.
"The ship...The Sword of Baal"? He could feel himself dying again and wanted to know if he saved his brother's way home. Even as Genestealers were tearing open his sarcophagus, he was still laying down covering fire for his 'Little' Brother. Ignis was a true hero to the Imperium and his Chapter.
@@Pandolfinstein44hard to comply if you are dead still good that the replacment servitor provided the information that the old servitor was dead without having to be asked
Be it a body of flesh and blood or the armor of a Dreadnought, Ignis was still the same man, the same soldier he was a thousand years ago. He never lost his humanity.
Part of the reason Ignis passing is so touching is how Hadriel reacts, it reaches through his Martian indoctrination of the Sacred Logic of the Machine, it touches his lifetime of Brotherhood as an Astarte but moves deeper, through the mental reprogramming he went through as an initiate and not just the person he once was, the hardened tribal child who was born into a world of suffering and hardship but right through to the Human underneath it all and recognised the sadness of the loss and Ignis final words.
Fun fact, the reason Ignis died was because fhe Techmarine left his side. The reason you see Dreadnoughts and other large machines be deploted alongside platoons worth of soldiers is because of how easily dismantled they can be dismantled by ground troops if left on their own
Just like real word tanks. You need to deploy infantry along side tanks to protect against other infantry. The tank is the muscle but the troops outside are its eyes and ears.
@@ryanhampson673that's why the cavalry still exists. They don't ride horses anymore but they're still trained to be mobile forward scouts and effective combatants in order to make sure a friendly vehicle doesn't roll straight into a mine or get a grenade thrown inside it.
In reality yes, in 40k it depends. Tankred, a former black templar sword brethren and later Castraferrum Dreadnought, took down a daemon prince while being the last “man” standing of his strike force, reaching the abomination in the middle of enemy territory and surrounded by chaos forces.
Even though short lived, Ignis is one of my favorite characters, even though he died in the end, he showed just how much resilience, strength, and rage is held within a space marine chapter; And I for one, am all for that!
You know Hadraels heart sank alongside ours when he heard the failing beeps of Ignis' sarcophagus. I don't know how a small scene like this really makes you tear up so quickly.
On terra, in the cold damp of the Emperors Throne room, a single tear falls from the desiccated skull of humanities monarch. Another hero has fallen. Another echo of the forgotten yesterday, lost to time
Losing a Dreadnaught isnt just losing a fellow marine, it's losing a piece of history. At times some older dreadnoughts are woken up just so they can tell stories and first hand accounts of history and events. To lose one means all that information and all that they knew is gone forever
Remember the story of the Space Wolf who tried to open a mortally wounded Iron Hands dreaddy to retrieve geneseed only to realize to his horror that the Iron Hand was not there?
What a horrible existence. They're stuck in a sarcophagus for hundreds if not thousands of years, only to be awoken for battle. Then they are just put back to sleep again. I understand that some of them are basically just a brain and some organs. But other pilots seem to have full heads/torsos, and yet they can only look out of a tiny slit. They can never really be able to experience the outside world anymore. Just as Ignis was never able to feel the cold until his sarcophagus was breached.
I like the sense of false insecurity when the servitor didn't respond. It's a common theme to fuck up in the WH40K universe, so we expected some kind of intrusion. Turns out, it was just a minor inconvenience that showed how grumpy the techmarine is, lol.
"I. Am. Merciless Fury." "I. Am. Cleansing Rage." "I Am! The Angel's Vengeance!" "I shall clear the path... and the PATH! SHALL BE LIT! BY FIRE!" "I! Am! Wrath!" "I! Am! Steel!" "I Am! The Mercy of Angels!" Maybe it's just my own headcannon, but ... Part of this is almost certainly fanatical vigor, true. Zeal and righteous glory realized, as he gets to serve the Emperor, even in his death. But part of this sounds very much like a man psyching himself up through agony and suffering. For Ignis, being conscious is almost insufferable, even for a Space Marine. The *pain* he is in, constant and horrible with every waking second. This isn't just a mantra of a zealot. These are the words of a man goading himself to push past it all, one step at a time, and fight with everything he has.
There's a wonderful play on words in this. Ignus means flame, in latin...and he, Ignus, told his little brother, that the path will be cleared by flame... meaning by himself Warlord!🩸👊
7:47 Let's take in consideration that a Space Marine spends like 30 years on Mars, learning everything about the Omnissiah and the ways of treating machines when they receive damage. So it's curious to see both Hadrel and Theta-9 perfectly sinchronized just to configure correctly a new Dreadnought.
Where we cried. For the majestic conversation of them both is admirable, pure of woke and delusional fears, only full embrace of brotherly and cameradly full emotional respect and friendship.. Tis is where men cried
The most sad thing is these truly awesome scenes and the writing and voice acting is tarnished by subpar animations and cinematography and abysmal sound design. They googled "Gatling" for the dreadnought minigun and took the one footage of a .22 handheld one and thought "That would do.". This should have been the Gatling of a A-10 Thunderbolt, not this peashooter.
May the magnificent Lord-Father Ignis rest in eternal glory, within the bosom of the God Emperor. To us mortals he was a power beyond our understanding A servant of the God Emperor till his second-last breath. Go in peace, Lord-Father Ignis. Forever.
This has been nagging at me for a while, anyone else wonder why Ignis’ heart and lungs are questionably low down, also it doesn’t show that Ignis has skin or ribs, that concerns me.
@@Sheisinvisibleit isn't always the case, you don't need the torso to be put in a dreadnaught just the important bits. Rylanor's body was described to be just vital organs floating in a vat in the book
Stripping armor plates and advanced parts from the power fist to help shield the sarcophagus. It was an attempt regardless of the outcome. Ignis went to the emporer on his own terms duty complete rather than pine for a few more short breaths.
The Sarcophagus being breached wasnt a problem so much as restoring power to life support which would have been difficult considering Ignis had fallen on his back. He likely was trying to disconnect his weapon systems to conserve power but once he hears the alarms he knows even his backup power is also damaged.
Something about a super soldier on steroids who is supposedly the engineer for his super soldier brethren yelling at a computer to hack it and actually causing it to work tickles my funny bone
I love how a dreadnaught is basically like taking your dementia and ptsd ridden grandpa, throwing him into a mech suit, and then boosting him with adrenaline
Interestingly I didn’t realize that the sarcophagus’s were interchangeable! It’s the same machine, with a different pilot should it fall in battle! That’s insane!
For that pattern they are. The Boxnaught is one of the favorites because the sarcophagus is separate then part of the whole. Other patterns are much different.
The opening clip of the Techmarine going seamlessly between rite and ritual and trying his damnest to make (spaghetti code would be an understatement) work. Completely true to form. All programming is exactly like this.
I love how the dreadnought calls the techmarine "little brother"
There is no higher honor.
They are his brothers, and they are little compared to him, it fits, and they revere the Dreadnoughts even further
It would be something I would brag about until death

There was other scene where they showcase his cigoths before they fight when i forgot his name vists and checks the genes
7:47 Let's take in consideration that a Space Marine spends like 30 years on Mars, learning everything about the Omnissiah and the ways of treating machines when they receive damage. So it's curious to see both Hadrel and Theta-9 perfectly sinchronized just to configure correctly a new Dreadnought.
40k dreadnauts are simultaneously one of most epically badass and tragically depressing sci-fi ideas
When a dreadnought falls in battle it's a sad thing, but those who are chosen to replace them are honored to do so.
Where we cried. For the majestic conversation of them both is admirable, pure of woke and delusional fears, only full embrace of brotherly and cameradly full emotional respect and friendship..
Tis is where men cried
May the blood keep Brother Ignis in death, for he is with Sanguinius and Fighting Chaos in the afterlife with him the great angel
He is with the Emperor now...
Our guns have fallen silent brothers.
The most sad thing is these truly awesome scenes and the writing and voice acting is tarnished by subpar animations and cinematography and abysmal sound design. They googled "Gatling" for the dreadnought minigun and took the one footage of a .22 handheld one and thought "That would do.". This should have been the Gatling of a A-10 Thunderbolt, not this peashooter.
May the magnificent Lord-Father Ignis rest in eternal glory, within the bosom of the God Emperor.
To us mortals he was a power beyond our understanding A servant of the God Emperor till his second-last breath.
Go in peace, Lord-Father Ignis. Forever.
Rest, big brother. You will stand by our father Sanguinius again...
This has been nagging at me for a while, anyone else wonder why Ignis’ heart and lungs are questionably low down, also it doesn’t show that Ignis has skin or ribs, that concerns me.
Well.... He is in a sarcophagus for a reason. I dont wanna know what happened to him but at the same time I want to know.
@@louenhimmels8371 well, normally it is a limbless torso with a head, there would typically be skin and bones
@@Sheisinvisibleit isn't always the case, you don't need the torso to be put in a dreadnaught just the important bits. Rylanor's body was described to be just vital organs floating in a vat in the book
I mean he did say there wasn't enough of him to save a Second time. So dude prolly got fucked up last time.
The genestealers probably took swipes and bites out of him. They're smart enough to start going after the pilot of the dreadnought if they can do so
Rest now honoured brother... the skies of Baal burn bright in your honour.
4:42 That’s the most religious, eloquent version of “WORK YOU STUPID PIECE OF &@“$!” that I’ve ever heard.
Why was hadriel working on the power fist and not trying to patch the sarcophagus?
Stripping armor plates and advanced parts from the power fist to help shield the sarcophagus. It was an attempt regardless of the outcome. Ignis went to the emporer on his own terms duty complete rather than pine for a few more short breaths.
The Sarcophagus being breached wasnt a problem so much as restoring power to life support which would have been difficult considering Ignis had fallen on his back.
He likely was trying to disconnect his weapon systems to conserve power but once he hears the alarms he knows even his backup power is also damaged.
my only gripe about this scene is the assault canon sounding like a fucking peashooter XD
sounds like a submachine gun, not a Gattling cannon, at least they should have taken the A-10 cannon's BRRRRRRT sound
Something about a super soldier on steroids who is supposedly the engineer for his super soldier brethren yelling at a computer to hack it and actually causing it to work tickles my funny bone
“Even in death, i still serve.”

Orpheo did not like that comment about flesh failing and iron succeeding at all
I love how a dreadnaught is basically like taking your dementia and ptsd ridden grandpa, throwing him into a mech suit, and then boosting him with adrenaline
Honestly the opening bit where the startup process is as much ritual as it is genuine calibration hits so hard.
6:13 "You are a pervert marine!"
Interestingly I didn’t realize that the sarcophagus’s were interchangeable! It’s the same machine, with a different pilot should it fall in battle! That’s insane!
For that pattern they are. The Boxnaught is one of the favorites because the sarcophagus is separate then part of the whole. Other patterns are much different.
The opening clip of the Techmarine going seamlessly between rite and ritual and trying his damnest to make (spaghetti code would be an understatement) work.
Completely true to form. All programming is exactly like this.
