Funny enough there was a story of a plague marine fighting beside a eldar to stop a chaos incursion. The eldar said something along the lines of Your soul is damned there is no saving it, but you can still die with honor and in the name of your emperor.
Plus, the Emperor might also have considered that justice needed to be upheld. Even if he forgave Horus at heart, letting him off the hook could set a huge precedent down the road.
@@BobelPop The Emperor isn't really the symbol of Justice lol. He stripped entire systems of their resources and left those billions of people to then fend for themselves. He also had Malcador "go commit die" countless people aka assassinated them for speaking against the Imperium due to the horrible atrocities they committed.
The Man-Emperor of Mankind did redeem Magnus the Red by taking his soul back from the Indecisive Mollusk after poking him many times with his Golden Flaming Sword within the Warp.
3:56 There are Loyalist elements of the Traitor Legions who proved their loyalty to the Man-Emperor of Mankind at the end of the Horus Heresy and Guilliman had adopted them to be part of the Ultramarines successor chapters as a fresh start from their shameful association with the Traitor Primarchs.

Reminds me of when a renegade Dark Angel got captured by an Interrogator-Chaplain. He mocked the Chaplin about him being put in a cell on The Rock with the other Fallen. The Chaplin remarked that he was NOT a Fallen, having fallen to Chaos recently. The Fallen believed the lies that Luthor spoke, and had no idea the effect the Chaos Gods had on him. That is why the Fallen have a chance of redemption before execution. But this one knew EXACTLY what he was getting involved in. He forfeited his chance of redemption and only deserved the bolt round that the Chaplin promptly put through his skull.
@@brotherzael7986 not quite. “Fallen” refers specifically to the marines who were tricked into chaos by Luther. Anyone else besides them is just a regular traitor
There's also Captain Leonatos of the Blood Angels, though not actually a heretic he gets possessed by a demon and ends up chaos warlord leading one of the vanguards forces of the black crusade. He fights off the demon just long enough to order the chaos fleet into an ambush. He's doomed but he goes down fighting.
Well that just means he is not a heretic since he was force to be a daemon spawn and yet he still chose death, he is an example of a excellent god emperor endorse space marine.
@@Alex-pj8nz Though his soul is irrecoverably corrupted (probably). Perhaps the other characters from the story are better examples both Cloten and Lysander join a chaos marine warband and actively kill Imperial troops and citizens amongst other crimes and atrocities in their search for Leonatos, Cloten even starts to mutate from warp exposure and actually gives up and falls at one point (briefly). In the end both reject chaos (not all who started on the journey did).
@@TheAnon03 Cloten even KILLS his black rage. His much later seaming fall back into it was a feignt to pull a trick on the Chaos army, he needed Lysander to "Kill him" so he could escape and lead a mutiny.

Not that every warband agrees with them on that though, there are plenty of Alpha Legion warbands that are neck deep in corruptions and shit and don't want to go back.
The way I heard it was he was momentarily freed from the influence of chaos, realized what he had done and wanted death as he knew chaos would soon take hold of him again, so the emperor hit him full force with his full psychic might and shredded his soul to oblivion.

There are a lot of stories of traitors who had a moment of clarity and sacrificed themselves for the Emperor. I'm not 100% sure, but would the Arconrite count?
The word bearer sorceror is one of my favorite storylines. Didn't get redeemed, just jaded, bored and disgusted with himself after thousands of years of serving Chaos. It's probably not canon anymore but it's seeing Dark Age of Tech + Chaos in the lore is always interesting.
There is one major heretic who was allowed to rejoin though: There was a guy, I forgot his name, but he was basically one very powerful unregulated Psyker and he even made a deal with the Chaos Gods, had temples to the God Emperor of Mankind burned and faithful citizens purged. It basically got so bad that a few of his subordinates decided he needed to take a breather so they turned him into a corpse but because he was such a powerful Psyker and still useful in his corpse form, the Imperium enshrined him and use him for their own ends. It was a pretty minor character in a fringe novel so I don't remember his name, only the basic outline of the story.
"A Heretic may see the truth and seek redemption. He may be forgiven his past and will be absolved in death. A Traitor can never be forgiven. A Traitor will never find peace in this world or the next. There is nothing as wretched or as hated in all the world as a Traitor." - Cardinal Khrysdam
It should be noted, the Thousand sons sorcerers who found Rylanor are probably still alive. Magnus can bring them back from the dead, they were probably really hyped to tell their dad about the whole situation.
The Alpha Legion. Their warbands' ideologies range from: _'Damn Dirty Heretic and Loving It!'_ to _'The Current Imperium Ain't What Big Daddy E Wanted, Time to Trim The Fat'._ I'd reckon most don't start worshipping the Chaos Gods, but slowly after millenia they begin corrupting and twisting to match the environment of the Eye where they dwell. Hell, a certain warband in the recent setting actually seemed to be guided unknowingly by the Big Chair Skeleton, and were fighting both Chaos Forces as well as Imperial ones. The Man-Emperor even sent a certain Saint to 'assist'.
I did always wonder what it would be like to wake up and realize that you've been lost and corrupted, and the corruptions upon your mind have faded away so you know just what a monster you have become....honestly I would probably try to trick my fleet into nuking itself for all the horrors we have done.

Everyone is screwed up in Warhammer and Real Life dumbass Some people are Brave and Wise enough to accept it My advice? Be an Atheist/Secular Humanist in Real Life If you ever end up in any Warhammer Universe, join Chaos
The story of the Nurgle ultramarine and sister of battle is something that I would love to see be adapted. Especially considering the view the Sisters have on ALL mutants, heretics, xenos, and traitors, her going out of her way to “save”(and I am using that term very loosely) her friend and idol is honestly pretty wholesome and tragic. Also redemption is possible as one traitor Primarch has returned to Big E’s side, Magnus the Red from TTS.
I could imagine when he returns to the Demon of Nurgle, he looks on in hatred as he tears off his chest piece and pulls back his ribs to reveal the bomb. As it’s about to go off, the Nurglites are taken aback with chock and terror as the Ex-Untramarine shouts “FOR THE EMPEROR!-“ right as the bombs explodes
I remember in a gaunts ghosts book, the target they were after ends up realizing how bad he fucked up when confronted by gaunt and kills himself over the guilt.
I believe that was Sturm. Got arrested by Gaunt and captured by the Sons of Sek. They offered him revenge against Gaunt and all the others that wronged him, for help with training them. I was thinking about that other dude, Mabbon Etogaur. Who first betrayed the Bloodpact, and then the Sons of Sek. From what I remember he had a more philosophical reason for his turn, as opposed to base revenge. Honestly, I finished Anarch about a year ago; still not quite okay...
@@Raptorrat yea, he completely fucked a millitary operation where thousands died I think. Then he was captured in space by the chaos forces you said and he was brainwashed so bad he couldn't remember what he did and thought the imperium was just after him for no reason. He finds out the truth after coming to his senses, and I think gaunt even gave sturm one of his guns to off himself with
from what I understood, it was more of Horus going "father, please kill me." than big E thinking "welp, can't use this tool anymore, better get rid of it."
I'm pretty sure they only abandon his body to not get destroyed but if they had the opportunity they would re-enter his body quickly and kill the emperor while he wasn't paying attention.
Pretty much. The first blow drove the Warp Gods from his body but at that point, Horus wouldn't be able to resist them if they tried again so the 2nd blow shattered his soul. This is also confirmed by the fact that when the Emperor shattered him, the shards of his soul that was tethered to the Dark Gods went to them. This is why no-one has ever been able to revive Horus and why the best Fabius could come up with is a soulless clone.
I miss TTS and the last time we saw Magnus in that show is he is accompanied by Custodisi and Ephrael Stern after Cegorach sent them to meet Eldrad and his group.
Most of the Thousand Sons sorcerers are unaligned, they aren't even followers of chaos undivided. Most of them evolved on their own, to become warp entities/beings of pure energy like Magnus. So, since most of them have not and will most likely never align with any chaos gods/entities, there is a chance to redeem majority of the legion. I say most not all since some have totally fallen and chose to join chaos worshipping cults, or driven into situations where they are broken and claimed (Like sorcerer Menkaura). Most of them won't follow another being other than Magnus, since they view him more than just a father, like a being of worship, like an idol. Their love for their father is very potent and strong, they will even gladly die for him, like some fanatical cult followers. So, other than Magnus, they won't submit to another leader, be they loyalists/chaos gods/etc. The books tells us that they despise aligning themselves with daemons, wanting to be the ones in control. It's kind of funny that their pride and arrogance saves them from being claimed by the chaos gods. Just look at Ahriman with his "No, Belakor, ......I won't be the one granting wishes, .......you will bend to my will." (Ahriman First Prince) The fastest way to make the TS loyalist is for the Emps to just offer to reverse the Rubric Spell. Emps already revealed his power over life and death when he revived Guilliman from the dead and healed him from the curse of a god. If emps can nullify the most potent curse of Nurgle, he can surely nullify the rubric.
This actually kind of sums it up. Turning back is possible but the imperium will never allow it. It’s why people often get forced into actually joining chaos after falsely getting accused of chaos worship.
@@Chaerea_Carmin-Slaanesh_Chosen isn't there a bit in a book about some marines being accused because some of their battle brothers had turned, even though they were loyal and the inquisition was like "lol no actually heretic" and they figured they'd turn to chaos because it beats forced execution. Bad summary but that's the gyst.
It's still 100% my head cannon that sanguinius was the one that killed Horace in depths of the black rage and the emperor found him, The Big E tried to give our winged homeboy a cola but was horribly beaten and maimed, his last act as a physical human was to clap his own untainted son's cheeks to stop him from doing more damage.
It makes more sense than the current Canon of a heartless, unfeeling monster cunt Emporor who suddenly just couldn't bring himself to hurt his favourite son even though said son is the greatest threat to humanity and has killed billions ... come on GW.
@@davekavanagh7599 I prefer the Idea that the emperor fought Horus and barely won. It makes the chaos God's a much more tangible threat when they work together since even the Emperor couldn't really win.
Posted it a million times in RUclips but gonna post it again. 1. The Talons of Horus are empowered by the wound it dealt on the Emperor. How could a dead Horus do that? 2. Sanguinius killing Horus makes Chaos look weak. I mean, no disrespect to Hawk Boy, but he's just a primarch, strongest of them, but still a primarch. No way a primarch can kill the vessel of Chaos on his own 3. It makes Malcador look stupid. "Lemme get on the throne for ya buddy so you can watch Sanguinius wrecked Horus, no matter I turn to dust" 4. Dorn cant lie. How can Dorn lie to everyone that it was Horus who killed the Emperor. 5. And finally, if Sangunius did kill the Emperor, the Banana custodians would've had roasted Blood Angel chicken every night for the rest of the setting.
@@gunterthekaiser6190 The Emperor 1 shotted the void dragon which is said to be the greatest collection of C'tan shards in existence. I fully believe that even if all 4 chaos gods came together and became 1 super God. Even then the emperor would come out on top. Horus wasn't even 1% of the Emperor, so if chaos powered up Horus to be 50x more powerful. He's still not close to the Emperor. I think GW just wrote themselves into a corner by writing the ending first and then being confused as to how it could actually play out. Don't get me wrong. I love the idea that the chaos gods could be more dangerous, because honestly. At the moment, they are as dangerous as a stiff breeze. I mean the crippled Emperor on his throne, possesses Guilleman and burns down Nurgles realm while Nurgle hides in his manse. I mean jesus. Is Nurgle a god or what? 🤣 chaos claims to be the biggest single threat to the entire universe. So maybe it should be lol
@@davekavanagh7599 One-shotted the Void Dragon- In Mechanicum it was stated that even the Emperor couldnt kill the Void dragon, only subdue it and use it build his omnissiah persona 4 chaos gods vs emperor, emps comes up on top- are we forgetting that the purpose of the Emperor's imperial truth is to starve Chaos? The Emperor literally had to bargain with those evils to create the primarchs do Idont know where your getting your sources from. Horus isnt even 1% of the Emperor- wrong again, a Primarch contains an essence of the emperor plus a portion of his general powers, a roided up Horus is certainly a match for the Emperor And lastly to turn you point on itself, you did say that the best primarch is just a percentage of the Emperor, then how in the world could Sanguiniud, balck rage red thrist and all, beat the Emperor to a vegetable? Doesnt that defeat the purpose of the percent you're trying to say?
Abnett covers this content in Gaunt's ghosts, both broadly and specifically. Guardsmen come under suspicion of taint and are so close to getting a bolt gun exorcism that they're instead sent on continual suicide missions to die in glory... but ALSO entire plotlines involving chaos cultists that I won't spoil. "The one sane man in an insane galaxy" might clue people in to who I'm talking about, if they've read the entire series.
In the gaunts ghosts stories there's a really interesting traitor guardsman who Is giving them info on the sons of Sek. Another example of a traitor guardsman being somewhat accepted. There is so many interesting characters in the series.
I had an idea for campaign where a force of chaos cultist (I'd use Imperial Guard rules and kibashed models) and fresh chaos Space Marines that were born in the Eye of Terror that learn of the mighty God Emperor and have a sort of reverse Hores Heresy trying to fight their way out of the realm of chaos and to try the Imperium. It probably wouldn't end well for them but would be a fun thing to play around with.
It’s a lot of outside influence. Since chaos corruption is the gods direct influence, the ability to reform is directly tied to how much the god wants you to stay and how much the Emperor is willing to spend to get you back. Guard who fought Chaos Cultists can slip out from the dark gods easy, only to be met by inquisitors because the Imperium does not care that you only saw chaos once. Meanwhile Some lore notes that Tzeench is constantly filling Magnus’s head with shattered visions of the future, lies, and information (dr Manhattan style) specifically to prevent his mind from recognizing reality enough to repent. Tzeench is so determined to prevent this that Magnus literally cannot have the train of thoughts needed to consider repentance.
Just remembered a guy in the Gaunt's Ghost series. He was a chaos Etogaur (colonel) who turned himself over to the Imperium because he became disillusioned with chaos (from what I remember). The guy was FULLY aware of how he would be treated by the Imperium.
@@Chaerea_Carmin-Slaanesh_Chosen BR killed all heretics inside the chapter and went under investigation for years. Guess their success of defeating tyranid fleet, gave them some points in eyes of Inquisition. + Angelos himself knew something. I guess it was expected that BR would fall in chaos in some way from INQ long ago,
Did not know about the Black Shields of the Death Watch, that's super badass and makes for some really really spicy mixes of ex-traitor Space Marines. Fuck, that is such a cool idea!
I was just thinking of a story to write where a warband of renegades has individuals sabotaging battles to gain the imperiums favor and soon defecting to them while the MC tries exposing their plot. This will be very informational.
I mean guys, I sorta like my squishy bits to stay inside my body, and having just dealt with a bout of the nurglic plague, I think I'll still with the boring soul crushing Imperium. I can always adopt a cute little floating skull or a cherub or a servitor as a pet.
I always found it funny how a good chunk of Nurgle's forces aren't exactly malevolent, but instead just really playful and don't know what they're capable of
i often thought about servitor-ising an chaos spawn and cherubim-ising them to praise and pray to the emperor. a lot of those religious, beatific states can be induced in such a way as to be genuinely experienced from the point of the experiencer, so in that respect, everyone captured can be servitorised into genuine service of the emperor.
I vaguely recall, I think it was a book dealing with the grey knights or the inquisiton. One of the inquisitors retnanew was a choas cultists and had left chaos or being captured and reconverted
There's almost no point of going back. Even after finding space Jesus again, your only fate is being gunned down by the imperium for wavering in the first place. Embrace the chaos!
It would be an awesome twist if Perturabo ended up being the yellow king in the besquin novels, spending the last decades trying to redeem himself. It won’t ever be anything that cool, but one can dream.
Valdor is the king in yellow in the 40k universe. It has been revealed. He seeks a true name of the emperor so he can either destroy him or resurrect him, there are many theories
Yea I know they’ve said Valdor is the yellow king, just saying it was be an nice twist if Purti was just using the name to throw people off. I mean who would trust Perti if he went out there saying “Yeah, I’m good now. We cool?”
@@starrk07 unfortunately GW made perty into a demon, tho I hope it will be changed as this piece of lore makes no sense, perty hated chaos and it would be cool for him to be a leader of a renegade faction instead, not chaos and not imperial.
@@HalIOfFamer which is kinda weird considering Pert and his legion HATES demons, like they literally shove them into war machines instead of working with them
I forget the book, but a psyker cultist was all for Chaos until a warp portal opened above her world and she saw what waited on the other side for real; and since then became a vigilante hunting down Chaos cults and evading Imperial justice. Like a psychic batman. I want more of that.
Would be interesting to see if the Imperium would accept someone like Arguleon Veq the guy was a high chapion of Chaos but at some point went you know what this just isnt getting me to my life goals! And so left the cause of the ruinous powers.
0:12 Is that a pitcher plant behind you Majorkill? I've been watching you for quite awhile now but I just realized it's existance. Like beside the Custodes spear and the Necron Overlord head
According to the emperor in a recent book with his chat with Mortarion , it seems its possible to redeem at some point .. :) wont say more as incase people not ready the book with the chat at end with mortarion/emperor/Robert G all in the nice garden of nurgle :) worth reading godblight for the end fight stuff/interactions and actually see Morty get stuff done for a change :)
Perty technically *can* be redeemed but it wil ltake some serious effort and perhaps some specific moves, becuase I'm pretty sure while not chaos (mostly?), he and Iron Warriors are just renegades in my opinion. Should he get a better alternativee to chaos in terms of tools, then I guess he will abandon it and move to a better source of tech. Perhaps, a DAOT tech instead of chaos scientific branch.
I am thinking of Mabbon Etogaur from the Sabbat's World Crusade. Mabbon was an Imperial Officer that turned traitor and joined the Khorne worshipping Blood Pact, a Chaos Army modelling itself after the Imperial Guard and following the Chaos Commander Urlock Gaur. He reached the rank of Etogaur, which would equate to General in the Guard. Later he joined another of Gaur's subcommanders, who tried to recruit an army of Khorne worshipping soldiers, styling themselves after the Guard and Blood Pact, to have a loyal and battle-heardened force to overthrow Urlock Gaur with. After some other stuff happened Mabbon was fed up with Chaos and defected back to the Imperial side. He provided the Imperials with important information, that allowed the imperial crusade to perform a raid on a secret Chaos research station. While Mabbon did turn traitor, he turned back to the Imperium and became an inquisitorial informant.
What about if you're born into chaos? Like don't they just have giant cults and stuff. So say if someone is picked to be a chaos marine and that's just all they've ever known but for whatever reason they leave and try to join the imperium. I wonder how that would go.
it reminds me of that guy in blood pact that was fighting for chaos but seeks redemption but still doesn't like the worship of the emperor or the imperium
Adaric Vanes, the former Raven Guard captain from the Uriel Ventris series is a big miss here. He removed his Raven Guard tattoo only for it to return before he turned against Honsou.
Any reference to the soul drinkers just keeps reminding me of a dawn of war book where it ends with a blood raven neophyte having warp-spaghettied hands. After noticing the captain just tells him to put some gloves on.
Can you do some videos about some minor/side characters? I think there are some really awesome ones that dont really get the attention they deserve like Astelan of the fallen, who had a really wilde ride as one of the first born Dark Angels or that Thunderwarrior that created a crime empire on terra during the great crusade/horus heresy
Of course they can! On a basic monthly plan (per soldier) of 39.95. For 20% more they get better health cover and for 40% premium they can be assured that their families are taken care of and have a 1/165 chance that they will be forever entombed in a dreadnought and a 20% discount on participating retailers and pleasure worlds.
Since the imperium is riddicolously big it's pretty well established that very few things are "standardized" exept for heavy ordinance (they literally need STANDARD TEMPLATE CONSTRUCTS) and some edicts. Because of that there is no " universal rule of law" in the imperium and i think the level of penance would fall mostly on the member of ecclesiarchy/genral/inquisitor or whoever is supposed to judge in any particular situations. Some might be fairly understanding, some will mostly be zealotic in theyr judgment and not care about context/reason at all and some might take in consideration things that we would consider completely irrelevant or have a completely fucked up sense of priorities.

@@Alex-pj8nz Though his soul is irrecoverably corrupted (probably).
Perhaps the other characters from the story are better examples both Cloten and Lysander join a chaos marine warband and actively kill Imperial troops and citizens amongst other crimes and atrocities in their search for Leonatos, Cloten even starts to mutate from warp exposure and actually gives up and falls at one point (briefly). In the end both reject chaos (not all who started on the journey did).

Only in death may the traitor know the Emperor's mercy!

There is one major heretic who was allowed to rejoin though:
There was a guy, I forgot his name, but he was basically one very powerful unregulated Psyker and he even made a deal with the Chaos Gods, had temples to the God Emperor of Mankind burned and faithful citizens purged.
It basically got so bad that a few of his subordinates decided he needed to take a breather so they turned him into a corpse but because he was such a powerful Psyker and still useful in his corpse form, the Imperium enshrined him and use him for their own ends.
It was a pretty minor character in a fringe novel so I don't remember his name, only the basic outline of the story.

@@christiandauz3742 why'd you write "dumbass", everything you said makes sense except that part.
The story of the Nurgle ultramarine and sister of battle is something that I would love to see be adapted. Especially considering the view the Sisters have on ALL mutants, heretics, xenos, and traitors, her going out of her way to “save”(and I am using that term very loosely) her friend and idol is honestly pretty wholesome and tragic.
Also redemption is possible as one traitor Primarch has returned to Big E’s side, Magnus the Red from TTS.
I could imagine when he returns to the Demon of Nurgle, he looks on in hatred as he tears off his chest piece and pulls back his ribs to reveal the bomb.
As it’s about to go off, the Nurglites are taken aback with chock and terror as the Ex-Untramarine shouts “FOR THE EMPEROR!-“ right as the bombs explodes
Wait, Didn't the Emperor also offer Magnus a chance at redemption if he purged his chapter during the Siege of Terra? 😅
Yup. Turned that shit down too.
I remember in a gaunts ghosts book, the target they were after ends up realizing how bad he fucked up when confronted by gaunt and kills himself over the guilt.
I believe that was Sturm. Got arrested by Gaunt and captured by the Sons of Sek. They offered him revenge against Gaunt and all the others that wronged him, for help with training them.
I was thinking about that other dude, Mabbon Etogaur. Who first betrayed the Bloodpact, and then the Sons of Sek.
From what I remember he had a more philosophical reason for his turn, as opposed to base revenge.
Honestly, I finished Anarch about a year ago; still not quite okay...
@@Raptorrat yea, he completely fucked a millitary operation where thousands died I think. Then he was captured in space by the chaos forces you said and he was brainwashed so bad he couldn't remember what he did and thought the imperium was just after him for no reason.

10:53 it's nice to see that watamelon has chosen the side of the righteous.
Didn’t the Emperor delete Horus’ soul cause even though the Chaos gods abandoned him, his soul was still tainted and could be manipulated again?
from what I understood, it was more of Horus going "father, please kill me." than big E thinking "welp, can't use this tool anymore, better get rid of it."
Horus was sent to the Retconnian and made hot chocolate for poor Malal who wants to be canon again
I'm pretty sure they only abandon his body to not get destroyed but if they had the opportunity they would re-enter his body quickly and kill the emperor while he wasn't paying attention.
Pretty much.
The first blow drove the Warp Gods from his body but at that point, Horus wouldn't be able to resist them if they tried again so the 2nd blow shattered his soul.
This is also confirmed by the fact that when the Emperor shattered him, the shards of his soul that was tethered to the Dark Gods went to them.
This is why no-one has ever been able to revive Horus and why the best Fabius could come up with is a soulless clone.
Oh man I hope Magnus and the thousand son's redeemed themselves in the future.
I miss TTS and the last time we saw Magnus in that show is he is accompanied by Custodisi and Ephrael Stern after Cegorach sent them to meet Eldrad and his group.
Most of the Thousand Sons sorcerers are unaligned, they aren't even followers of chaos undivided. Most of them evolved on their own, to become warp entities/beings of pure energy like Magnus. So, since most of them have not and will most likely never align with any chaos gods/entities, there is a chance to redeem majority of the legion. I say most not all since some have totally fallen and chose to join chaos worshipping cults, or driven into situations where they are broken and claimed (Like sorcerer Menkaura). Most of them won't follow another being other than Magnus, since they view him more than just a father, like a being of worship, like an idol. Their love for their father is very potent and strong, they will even gladly die for him, like some fanatical cult followers. So, other than Magnus, they won't submit to another leader, be they loyalists/chaos gods/etc.
The books tells us that they despise aligning themselves with daemons, wanting to be the ones in control. It's kind of funny that their pride and arrogance saves them from being claimed by the chaos gods. Just look at Ahriman with his "No, Belakor, ......I won't be the one granting wishes, .......you will bend to my will." (Ahriman First Prince)
The fastest way to make the TS loyalist is for the Emps to just offer to reverse the Rubric Spell. Emps already revealed his power over life and death when he revived Guilliman from the dead and healed him from the curse of a god. If emps can nullify the most potent curse of Nurgle, he can surely nullify the rubric.

It's still 100% my head cannon that sanguinius was the one that killed Horace in depths of the black rage and the emperor found him, The Big E tried to give our winged homeboy a cola but was horribly beaten and maimed, his last act as a physical human was to clap his own untainted son's cheeks to stop him from doing more damage.

@@davekavanagh7599 I prefer the Idea that the emperor fought Horus and barely won. It makes the chaos God's a much more tangible threat when they work together since even the Emperor couldn't really win.
Posted it a million times in RUclips but gonna post it again.
1. The Talons of Horus are empowered by the wound it dealt on the Emperor. How could a dead Horus do that?
2. Sanguinius killing Horus makes Chaos look weak. I mean, no disrespect to Hawk Boy, but he's just a primarch, strongest of them, but still a primarch. No way a primarch can kill the vessel of Chaos on his own
3. It makes Malcador look stupid. "Lemme get on the throne for ya buddy so you can watch Sanguinius wrecked Horus, no matter I turn to dust"
4. Dorn cant lie. How can Dorn lie to everyone that it was Horus who killed the Emperor.
5. And finally, if Sangunius did kill the Emperor, the Banana custodians would've had roasted Blood Angel chicken every night for the rest of the setting.
@@gunterthekaiser6190 The Emperor 1 shotted the void dragon which is said to be the greatest collection of C'tan shards in existence. I fully believe that even if all 4 chaos gods came together and became 1 super God. Even then the emperor would come out on top. Horus wasn't even 1% of the Emperor, so if chaos powered up Horus to be 50x more powerful. He's still not close to the Emperor.
I think GW just wrote themselves into a corner by writing the ending first and then being confused as to how it could actually play out.
Don't get me wrong. I love the idea that the chaos gods could be more dangerous, because honestly. At the moment, they are as dangerous as a stiff breeze. I mean the crippled Emperor on his throne, possesses Guilleman and burns down Nurgles realm while Nurgle hides in his manse.
I mean jesus. Is Nurgle a god or what? 🤣 chaos claims to be the biggest single threat to the entire universe. So maybe it should be lol
@@davekavanagh7599 One-shotted the Void Dragon- In Mechanicum it was stated that even the Emperor couldnt kill the Void dragon, only subdue it and use it build his omnissiah persona
4 chaos gods vs emperor, emps comes up on top- are we forgetting that the purpose of the Emperor's imperial truth is to starve Chaos? The Emperor literally had to bargain with those evils to create the primarchs do Idont know where your getting your sources from.
Horus isnt even 1% of the Emperor- wrong again, a Primarch contains an essence of the emperor plus a portion of his general powers, a roided up Horus is certainly a match for the Emperor
And lastly to turn you point on itself, you did say that the best primarch is just a percentage of the Emperor, then how in the world could Sanguiniud, balck rage red thrist and all, beat the Emperor to a vegetable? Doesnt that defeat the purpose of the percent you're trying to say?

Honestly I feel blackshields are some of the coolest space marines
I had an idea for campaign where a force of chaos cultist (I'd use Imperial Guard rules and kibashed models) and fresh chaos Space Marines that were born in the Eye of Terror that learn of the mighty God Emperor and have a sort of reverse Hores Heresy trying to fight their way out of the realm of chaos and to try the Imperium. It probably wouldn't end well for them but would be a fun thing to play around with.
If you are Magnus and want your soul back just let the Big E poke Tzeentch with his sword until it gives back
Magnus did nothing wrong :)
It’s a lot of outside influence. Since chaos corruption is the gods direct influence, the ability to reform is directly tied to how much the god wants you to stay and how much the Emperor is willing to spend to get you back.
Guard who fought Chaos Cultists can slip out from the dark gods easy, only to be met by inquisitors because the Imperium does not care that you only saw chaos once.
Meanwhile Some lore notes that Tzeench is constantly filling Magnus’s head with shattered visions of the future, lies, and information (dr Manhattan style) specifically to prevent his mind from recognizing reality enough to repent. Tzeench is so determined to prevent this that Magnus literally cannot have the train of thoughts needed to consider repentance.
Just remembered a guy in the Gaunt's Ghost series. He was a chaos Etogaur (colonel) who turned himself over to the Imperium because he became disillusioned with chaos (from what I remember). The guy was FULLY aware of how he would be treated by the Imperium.

Better question: Why would you want to forsake Papa Nurgle's love to return to the soul-crushing Imperium?
and by that, forsake the chance to embrace his plague daemon dogos. and other sickeningly cute stuff.
I mean guys, I sorta like my squishy bits to stay inside my body, and having just dealt with a bout of the nurglic plague, I think I'll still with the boring soul crushing Imperium. I can always adopt a cute little floating skull or a cherub or a servitor as a pet.
I always found it funny how a good chunk of Nurgle's forces aren't exactly malevolent, but instead just really playful and don't know what they're capable of
i often thought about servitor-ising an chaos spawn and cherubim-ising them to praise and pray to the emperor. a lot of those religious, beatific states can be induced in such a way as to be genuinely experienced from the point of the experiencer, so in that respect, everyone captured can be servitorised into genuine service of the emperor.
I vaguely recall, I think it was a book dealing with the grey knights or the inquisiton. One of the inquisitors retnanew was a choas cultists and had left chaos or being captured and reconverted

According to the emperor in a recent book with his chat with Mortarion , it seems its possible to redeem at some point .. :) wont say more as incase people not ready the book with the chat at end with mortarion/emperor/Robert G all in the nice garden of nurgle :) worth reading godblight for the end fight stuff/interactions and actually see Morty get stuff done for a change :)
Perty technically *can* be redeemed but it wil ltake some serious effort and perhaps some specific moves, becuase I'm pretty sure while not chaos (mostly?), he and Iron Warriors are just renegades in my opinion. Should he get a better alternativee to chaos in terms of tools, then I guess he will abandon it and move to a better source of tech. Perhaps, a DAOT tech instead of chaos scientific branch.
I am thinking of Mabbon Etogaur from the Sabbat's World Crusade.
Mabbon was an Imperial Officer that turned traitor and joined the Khorne worshipping Blood Pact, a Chaos Army modelling itself after the Imperial Guard and following the Chaos Commander Urlock Gaur. He reached the rank of Etogaur, which would equate to General in the Guard.
Later he joined another of Gaur's subcommanders, who tried to recruit an army of Khorne worshipping soldiers, styling themselves after the Guard and Blood Pact, to have a loyal and battle-heardened force to overthrow Urlock Gaur with.
After some other stuff happened Mabbon was fed up with Chaos and defected back to the Imperial side. He provided the Imperials with important information, that allowed the imperial crusade to perform a raid on a secret Chaos research station.
While Mabbon did turn traitor, he turned back to the Imperium and became an inquisitorial informant.
What about if you're born into chaos? Like don't they just have giant cults and stuff. So say if someone is picked to be a chaos marine and that's just all they've ever known but for whatever reason they leave and try to join the imperium. I wonder how that would go.
If they don't have tentacles, then they can go with the blackshield route.
blackshield?
it reminds me of that guy in blood pact that was fighting for chaos but seeks redemption but still doesn't like the worship of the emperor or the imperium

Any reference to the soul drinkers just keeps reminding me of a dawn of war book where it ends with a blood raven neophyte having warp-spaghettied hands. After noticing the captain just tells him to put some gloves on.
Majorkill: the only youtuber that gets naked on camera
Majorkill's viewers: FUUUUUCK YEA
Mantis space marines are one of my favorite, they were allowed to rejoin and re grown their numbers
Can you do some videos about some minor/side characters? I think there are some really awesome ones that dont really get the attention they deserve like Astelan of the fallen, who had a really wilde ride as one of the first born Dark Angels or that Thunderwarrior that created a crime empire on terra during the great crusade/horus heresy
Of course they can! On a basic monthly plan (per soldier) of 39.95. For 20% more they get better health cover and for 40% premium they can be assured that their families are taken care of and have a 1/165 chance that they will be forever entombed in a dreadnought and a 20% discount on participating retailers and pleasure worlds.
The imperium should really invest in chaos rehab service
No. One bolter shell per heretic is just a lot cheaper.
I havent painted warhammer for 15 years now but your videos have got me back into it and im starting this week!
I still like the theory that says the Soul Drinkers are really secret Emperor's Children successors, not corrupted sons of Dorn.
Or one of the Lost and the damned
10:48 IS THAT A WATERMELON SHEEP I SEE?!?!?!? LOL
10:40 I see even the Major is a fan of Watame
Since the imperium is riddicolously big it's pretty well established that very few things are "standardized" exept for heavy ordinance (they literally need STANDARD TEMPLATE CONSTRUCTS) and some edicts. Because of that there is no " universal rule of law" in the imperium and i think the level of penance would fall mostly on the member of ecclesiarchy/genral/inquisitor or whoever is supposed to judge in any particular situations. Some might be fairly understanding, some will mostly be zealotic in theyr judgment and not care about context/reason at all and some might take in consideration things that we would consider completely irrelevant or have a completely fucked up sense of priorities.
10:39 what's watamelon doing on the bridge of the Vengeful Spirit?
I'd name the thousand sons and fulgrim clone off the top of my head
Of course heretics can be redeemed, with a bolter.
8:50.
“hey, why are you hugging me?”
“to thank you for the power you gave me.”
“aw thanks. wait what’s that ticking sound?”
