"Who animated this?"
One guy. Just one guy.
Dammit, I was just about to say this
That's the power the emperor gives you
He did have some people come in on occasion to do specialized stuff like music and some tweaking of lighting etc
"With all due respect, sir, you can’t win a race by committee." Carroll Shelby from Ford vs. Ferrari.
One guy. But backed by the full weight and might of the Imperium.
The Emperor Preserves!
"They're off to fight this Rebellion"
No. The Astartes do not FIGHT rebellion.
The Astartes END Rebellion.
This is not war, this is pest control.
Unless they are the rebellion, then its just down to plot convenience.
If you want to capture a city send a spuad, a planet send a company, a culture send a chapter.
Unless you count the Horus heresy and renegade chapter in which case they start the rebellion
There is no such thing as a rebellion and to speak of one is HERESY!

"If there was an army of them guys that could do the telekinesis thing they would be unstoppable, they really would"
*laughs in Grey Knights*
Laughs in biomass
There aren't that many Grey Knights. In fact, there aren't enough Grey Knights for them to be everywhere they are needed. Moreover, those psykers aren't daemons, so the usual anti-daemon McGuffins that Grey Knights bring to the field won't be all _that_ effective against them. Chances are, the Grey Knights would need to bring some of their own psyker tricks to bear, since every Grey Knight is an accomplished and powerful psyker in his own right.
@@Schwarzvogel1 well ofc it's only one chapter. But that's still definitely an army. And don't forget about the Libarius. Also the amount of counters the Imperium has to warp fuckery is unlimited.
Demon hunters are still canon in my opinion!
Thats what we call a librarian, every Chapter (except for the Grey Knights, Black Templars) has a few (grey Knights are a Chapter of Psykers)
"Are Space Marines humans?"
Once... Once they were.
They are humans in the sense that they are part of humanity.
However they will never _be_ the same as the rest of us.
Original comment about has it down. The emperor is what humanity can be, astartes is what we need them to be.
look up Exploring warhammer 40k creating a space marine🏴 The exploring Series
Now they’re revealed as gods or something holy from a humy point of view.
“Well yes, but actually no...”
"There was a bunch of books made"
*looks over at my wall of over 200 books thats no where near complete*
"Yeah theres a few"
Exactly the same with me hahaha
I don't have shelves anymore just data stacks of codexs,novels,and LEs
I'm sorry I haven't been introduced into the lore a lot. Who writes these books. In 20 years of gaming I have heard almost nothing about the lore and Warhammer games. Why is Warhammer so underrated.
@@beastmasterbg Am guessing cause people paint GW as nerds with models old troupe, but yes it's very underrated www.blacklibrary.com if you want to get into the books
@@beastmasterbg warhammer books are written by a collection of authors and published to the black library.
Id say the reason 40k is underrated is due to 2 main factors:
1) im gonna get a lot flak if anyone sees this but in reality its just over over over the top star wars/halo etc its the same genre but goes too far as its main point. Which means if youre already hyper invested into lets say star wars it just from your perspective becomes a silly over the top joke
And 2) WH40K itself comes from the board game. With models and building and painting, which isnt for everyone. And its expensive, so it means the main core focus of 40k is based around something that less than most would be interested in.

@@yanivgalmor1747 good to hear
@@jack9315 It's not good to hear because it was basically the death of the Astartes series.
"Are space marines human?"
Well yes, but actually no.
They are transhuman. Genetically and physically modified and trained throughout their adolescence to be mighty warriors, capable of far more than any ordinary human. Able to survive wounds that would kill a man in seconds and incredible feats of strength and endurance.
Not genetically. No gene-tampering really happens, here. The gene-seed helps the body grow, as well as accept the new organs, but even those organs are artificial in nature, transplanted into them, rather grown in them. They are transhumanist, yes, but not gene-edited.
As the RussianBadger once said, It’s as if Boogie2988 ate Hulk Hogan and was armored up in a Landrover
@@inccubusdaniel9249 not quite true - genetic editing *does* happen (that's what the gene-seed does, and it's a significant part of how they get so ridiculously swole). The extra organs being added manually rather than being left to grow independently is more of an efficiency thing (in terms of time-saving and lowering the risk of rejection) than anything else, as far as I understand it.
Ah yes 7-8ft tall GM religious killing machines
@@inccubusdaniel9249 In the Horus Heresy books it's mentioned how some Legiones Astartes would take on a resemblance to their Primarch. Horus Aximand was actually called 'Little Horus' because his geneseed made him resemble Horus Lupercal.

@@davehood2667 they are not what you think they are. theyre a homebrew xenos race made by the creator of astartes. though, they probably have some xenos supertech, so ya know.
They were confirmed as a kind of noble caste of a human strain with low level psyker abilities. The spinal attachments help boost their psyker abilities but they still only really have telekinesis for offence

Boo get off the stage,,🤣
Thus... Does put a smile in my face
Omg get out.
As a non-40K fan, here’s what I know about this:
- The projectile firearms used are bolters. They use .75 caliber rounds, which are rocket propelled with quad solid fuel boosters, and have explosive charges. That they straight-up turn targets to mist is entirely normal.
- The space marines are heavily augmented humans, like halo’s spartans, but taken to an extreme (this progression is pretty standard for W40K). Multiple redundant organs, extensive mechanical implants, etc.
- After you see the space marines absorbed by the sparkly light ball, what you’re seeing is them traveling through the Warp. The warp is W40K’s version of FTL travel, except that it also happens to be a dimension of eternal eldritch horror and torment. Like if Star Trek’s subspace was the home of everything Cthulhu would consider a fear-worthy cosmic horror, and the Federation chose to use it for a highway anyways. Stats are mostly vague, but word is that W40K Warp travel CAN have up to a 10% lethality rate.
Every black templars is religious to a really powerful man of science
Have watched Astartes a dozen times. Watched as many reactions. Only now did I notice that the two gold psyker guys were 'unfinished' constructs. One of them only had a single arm, though it had two eyes, and the other had both arms, but only ONE eye. They weren't even finished constructs. Probably the Sphere rushed them into action, maybe when the Astartes breached the ship.
thank you for clarifying that they were psykers
Holy shit I never realised they were actually constructs! I thought they were just psykers who accepted influence from the orb

@@Minotaur-ey2lg Thing is. Ultramarines have a primarch, Roboute Guilliman, is by far one of the loyalist men the Imperium. He believes in the will of the Emperor and knows what the Emperor wanted. He even is against the idea of making the Emperor into a God. He is extremely against it. Though he was loyal to the Imperium and would try hard to keep the Imperium from shattering anymore than it has. Even going through great efforts of taking on the religious sector of the Imperium and limiting their power. Which has mix results.
Everybody here be discussing 40k lore and I the casual just got freaking goosebumps from remembering that video lol
An explanation for the ending, Markiplier is a big warhammer fan. When the astarties channel got hacked, he jumped in to help. So that's why he was thanked there
thank you i was wondering this for months
Thank you, I actually wondered why he was thanked and I figured it had to do with when the channel was hacked but I never really knew
woah wait, they guy got HACKED!?
Please tell me we know who
Not sure who they were but they held his account for almost a year and started reuploading episodes of lesser quality. They also consistently deleted commenters who called out on the fact that it was hacked. He actually ruined a the audio for a couple of episodes so when astartes got it back he had to download what the hacker had posted and try to fix it the best he could (because he didn't have the originals anymore).
@@glitchmaster2228 Sounds like jealous friends.
All this by one man? Surely he had SOME kind of help.
Always more to these things
The best thing about the Astartes series is that the Space Marines do genuinely come across as these giant, unstoppable badasses that the lore tells us they are. The figures just don't reflect that these are a super-mega elite force of beings so genetically modified that they're barely human. Same with their weapons; an ordinary person would not be able to handle them.
And it captures that dark, gritty and brutal atmosphere that is exactly how I've always imagined 40k to be.
you don't need to get into the models, the lore itself is so vast you can spend months just reading stuff about the lore
Edit: I know you could probably take longer, I just didn't want to scare the newbies XD

That's a very apt way of putting it.

@@gurpyaresingh6189 I think the point being that a piece of metal is unforged.
Hey, update time.
The Astartes project was originally made by one dude as a fan project, last week he was officially hired by Games Workshop, and the project was endorsed. So now he has greater resources and access to other professionals, I can't wait to see what he releases next.

@@Yozcenk66 are you new to the 40k universe?
If so, get into the game/lore and you’ll understand why.
The ‘Royal Marine’ that ‘reacts’ to this fan film is done with such little knowledge that he continuously asks stupid rhetorical questions.
An example of this is what your comment refers too..
The ‘rest of us’ (those that are in the 40k hobby) know the answer...
It’s a chaos entity.... and that’s heretical. What that means in the lore is anything that goes against what the Emperor’s Imperial Truth.
Still don’t know what I’m talking about?

@@willingandable3565 first of all mr. high and mighty I dont know if it was your intention to sound like an asshole and talk down to people but you kinda did... secondly I dont just want to know that it is a choas entry and tied to the warp. I want to know its purpose, why is it there And what it did to the space marines. And even from a lore stand point there is most likely someone or something designed to do that. (Which would most likely be or accompanied by Grey Knights)
It isn't heresy to try to understand it.... but it would most likely be a death sentence if you did try (lore wise)
17:56 "He looks mutated in some way."
Oh boy you have no idea. These guys go through a series of surgeries to implant at least 19 new organs over the course of 6 years. The 3 earliest are a second heart, an implant to increase bone development (which includes fusing the rib cage into a solid plate of bone), and another implant that causes the same growth to happen to the muscles. And that is ideally in the first two years of your process from human to transhuman.
And those first three implants are put in between the ages of 10 and 12.

Jeff Bezos can't even afford all the stuff
Cant afford models, at least try the video games. Preferably Dawn Of War 1.
You can mate. Remember these models can last you a lifetime. Just build slowly over time. Indomitus boxset is a great way to start.
"If there were an army of those guys they'd be like, unstoppable."
Hahahaha-no. Sorry, those guys were actually on the incredibly weak end of the power-scale for their kind. (Known as Psykers.) This helps to explain why the Beakie and Mr.Capeman (a decorated veteran of this Chapter of Space Marines, Possibly 1st Sergeant) were so quick to put down the Acolyte/Agent (the guy in the cloak who was 'praying' to the orb.) was because he was signifcantly more capable in base ability and training than the ones in the masks with mechanical spines (a Psychic Hood).
Said agent wasn't some form of traitor- well, not in the way you meant. In 40k, to be capable of Sorcery is to be in some way able to manipulate the warp, which is a seperate but connected plane of existence formed entirely out of the emotions and beliefs of living things, and inhabited by primordial creatures with primordial urges and corruptive capabilities. The agent lost control of his defences either by loss of personal attention/control or by force and IMMEDIATELY had his soul eaten and his body possessed by a Daemon.
A highly capable Psyker is fully capable of wreaking havoc on the scale of planets and -possibly- solar systems if they don't have to worry about getting their soul eaten. Space Marines themselves, actually have Psykers in the form of Librarians.
To get an adequate understanding of the scale of Warhammer, you need to understand that Space Marines, for all their bullshit by our understanding, are the bog standard of this universe. they are the base level requirement an individual has to be in order to stand up to most enemy factions in the setting. The imperial Guard die in the hundreds of thousands to the millions in a single day of battle for the sole purpose of holding the line, and win more often than not through attrition rather than a strategic victory. Full planets are rendered lifeless or outright destroyed because in many cases, that is simply a better outcome than ceding it to the enemy, be they Orks, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Tyranids, or worst of all, Chaos. (or the dirty space communist weebs.)
A million Guardsman deaths in a day?
More like...
_A billion an hour_
sounds depressing.
What speaks most to me is that that psyker was in the Inqusition and they probably take about every 1 in 100,000 SANCTIONED psykers and to be put on the task of eavesdropping on xenos means that psyker was powerful and had proven itself and they were still overwhelmed in less than 10 seconds. A Librarian may have been hard pressed to hold it's own against those balls of.... whatever they are.
I hope the artist does more because their artwork is spectacular and their story brings up many questions.
These are two separate orbs communicating with each other, the psyker was eavedropping on them, and revealed himself to them in order to warn the space marines who were dealing with the other orb. If you look carefully, you can see the moment where the commander (Red badass robo-eye) receive the warning, but too late.

It fun watching people see this for the first time. I only got into 40k in 2018 and this cemented my love for it, truly badass and created by a single person... like WTF? I've seen major studios who don't get close to this level of quality.
If you wanna know more about 40k I HIGHLY recommend you check out Bricky he has a two part lore series that explains every faction while also being entertaining. The first video is focused on humans and the second is focused on alien races but be warned the videos are about an hour long each

Those two videos were what got me into 40K.

BURN THE HERETICS BROTHER.
Absolute minimalist description of every 40K tabletop army:
Imperial Dudes - Worship the god emperor
Space marines/astartes - The sort of genetic supersoldier that captain america wishes he was. Come in many flavours.
Imperial Guard/astra militarum - Basic human soldiers who can be anything from a stone age tribal with an axe to a highly trained specops paratrooper with high end body armour and a laser gun.
Stormtroopers/Tempestus Scions - Like the guard boys but better in every conceivable way.
Sisters of Battle/Soritas - Crazy killer nuns in power armour.
Imperial knights - You dig giant robots, I dig giant robots, fair maidens dig giant robots forsooth.
Adeptus Mechanicus - Imagine an engineer who is convinced machines are an extension of god. Who has alzheimers and thus has forgotten half of what he used to know.
Adeptus Custodes - The sort of genetic supersoldier that space marines wish they were. Also come with their own posse of anti-magic hot bitches who have a thing for topknots.
Chaos Dudes - Worship a bunch of gods from another dimension who are really into mutating people and causing chaos.
Chaos Space marines - Basically space marines but with added mutations and more infighting. Also come in numerous flavours.
Rebel guard and such are present in lore but don't get any tabletop funtimes except as meatshields for chaos marines.
Chaos knights - Basically imperial knights but with more whacky stuff and infighting.
Daemons - Demons.
Alien dudes - Do alien stuff
Tau - Space weeb communists
Eldar/Aeldari - Space elves of the high fantasy sort
Dark Eldar/Drukhari - Space elves who need to torture people to continue living. Fortunately for them they also derive an erotic thrill from it.
Orkz - ORKZ ORKZ ORKZ ORKZ ORKZ ORKZ ORKZ! A collection of memes and 80s football hooligans
Necrons - Space egyptians who basically went to war with the galaxy in the distant past, sort of won then took a nap to dodge the consequences. Sold their souls to preserve their minds in robot bodies, this was a bad idea.
Tyranids - Bugs. Eat everything.
Genestealer cults - What happens when bugs send bugs to infect your populations genepool.
Harlequins - Space elf clowns. Bazinga.
Theres a few others but they're basically irrelevant. Many more in lore who are even more irrelevant.
~EDIT~
Ok so few things to answer other questions.
One: Space marines are human. Just augmented through a lengthy, dangerous and difficult process of genetic and surgical augmentation. Multiple organs are grown and implanted alongside a program of genetic modification. By the end the basic astartes is about 8 foot tall, has an extra heart, a predigestive stomach, can go without sleep for months at a time among many other things.
Two: Robe boy. He was part of a group called the inquisition, who basically handle all sorts of shit. Probably an inquisitor. Generally space marines are not on friendly terms with them but some chapters are the opposite.
He was also pretty obviously what is called a "psyker" basically a guy who can crazy psychic bullshit powers that are powered by another dimension called "the warp" which is also where the chaos gods live. Using psyker powers is very dangerous and requires considerable training, conditioning and proper equipment to do so with any degree of safety. That being said the Empire is heavily reliant on psykers for various purposes.
What happened to him by the look of it is that he lost focus when he signalled something to the space marine next to him and that loss of focus let the big orb alien thing hijack his mind (or try to). The space marines response of basically punching his head to paste and shooting him repeatedly was a very reasonable and subdued response as psyker stuff going wrong is a great way to find yourself dealing with a rift into the warp that shits out copious quantities of demons.
Three: Real world military tactics don't work too well in 40K. Its a setting where melee combat is common and the empire mainly uses WW2 era tactics for its basic human forces. If you're lucky they're using German or British tactics. If you're unlucky its Russian.
Space marines meanwhile do their own thing. Typically surgical strikes on key elements of the enemy force in a warzone. Lot of them prefer melee combat where a space marines advantages can often overwhelm other forces. Different groups (challed "chapters") of space marines have their own specialities and preferences.
Also fun fact: The gun they use is called a bolter. It fires a .75 two stage armour piercing explosive round. In basic terms take a tiny rocket, give it an armour piercing tip and an explosive charge. Then you put it in a conventional bullet. The normal gunpowder charge gets it out of your gun (dodging the gyrojets low initial velocity) at a reasonable clip, then the rocket motor ignites and keeps it on a straight trajectory while upping its armour penetration qualities. Once it hits something the explosive fuse is set off which give it a fraction of a second to penetrate then explodes.
Neat
It is debatable whether Space Marines are truly human, though. It really depends on how you define "human." Is a being that is much larger than any human being, and has three lungs, two hearts, a fused ribcage, and can spit acid truly a human being? And who also has a psychology drastically different from that of humanity, and is not capable of sexual reproduction to produce more of its kind? The funny thing is that if anything, Astartes would be the textbook definition of _mutants_ (yes, I know that is a heretical statement, and will submit myself to any Inquisitorial review, but shut not your ears, good Imperial citizen). Your average Astartes is as much a mutant as an Ogryn or a Navigator, but I do agree that a Space Marine is far more human than some of the more eccentric members of the Adeptus Mechanicus; those cogboys can get real freaky.
I do disagree with your third point, somewhat, though. The main thing that seems to be missing in 40K when compared to the real world is the abundance of precision-guided weapons that modern militaries employ nowadays... as well as a surprising lack of tactical nuclear weapons. (I don't think even an Ork horde would fare too well after being bombarded with several 10 kT nuclear warheads.) As for the claim that the Imperium doesn't use real world military tactics, it's worth noting that your available weaponry determines your tactics, and that trench warfare did not die out with WWI and WWII; it was employed as late as the Iran-Iraq war. Moreover, the Guard tends to fight in large-scale battles which we have _not_ seen since the Second World War, thankfully. You really cannot compare modern counterinsurgency operations to the sort of massive battles that occur every Tuesday in the 40K universe. It's quite possible that a WW3 near the end of the Cold War would have eventually looked like an Imperial Guard battle as both sides ran low on guided munitions and C3 capabilities were degraded.
What made "Astartes" so memorable for me is that you _do_ see the Space Marines and their opponents using realistic small-unit tactics, and not just wading in to Hulk-smash everything like we see them doing in virtually every other media description of the Adeptus Astartes. Their opponents are not crazed or idiotic mooks; those traitor Guardsmen are smart and brave. They set up ambushes and have multiple positions to fall back to. Those tactics would have worked well even against real-world special forces operators. Unfortunately for those traitors, they weren't facing Delta Force or Tempestus Scions. They are simply _outmatched_ in every sense of the word.
As for bolters, I've seen in some sources that they use .998 caliber projectiles, but the lore really isn't consistent on this. It also doesn't explain how they avoid the Gyrojet's other problem--horrendous accuracy due to inconsistent spin-stabilization. I guess that the bolter ammunition is just made with a much higher level of quality control than the original Gyrojet rounds. The ironic thing is that the humble Guardsman's lasgun is more technologically advanced (from a real-world perspective) than the bolter, and, in the real world, a lasgun would be a far superior weapon. Who _wouldn't_ want a 3.5 kg rifle that (somehow) fires eye safe lasers with enough energy to shear off human limbs, has a "magazine" with at least 50 shots, and uses power packs that you can recharge with solar energy or even by tossing them into a campfire?! And that comes in a package durable enough to use it as a club or a walking stick? The lasgun is a logisticians wet dream, and a weapon with which to conquer worlds... and the Imperial Guard has plenty of experience doing that.
@@Schwarzvogel1 Strictly speaking the space marines fall into the transhuman category.
Human origin but modified artificially to something beyond that.
Which is one of the reasons the Emperor made them male only. Didn't want humanity turned into astartes over time.
Now as for weapons. Theres different kinds of bolter. You're referencing the heavy bolter which fires a larger round.
Typically mounted in vehicles but also carried as a heavy weapon by a lone astartes.
The spin problem isn't really a problem if your manufacturing standards or methodology are up to snuff. Gyrojets were made at a time when that kind of precision was hard for small batches.
Imperium is post dark age of technology which was when humanity basically "finished" science.
The lasgun meanwhile seems cool but is weak sauce compared to the bolter. Its armour penetration is balls and compared to other weapons, armour and vehicles being fielded is woefully underpowered. Which is half the point of 40K, its so over the top the guys with a laser gun that is putting out energy per shot equivalent to a .50 BMG are on the lower end of power scale.
Overall it seems that las weapons are relatively easy to defend against for most things on the battlefields of the 40k universe. Either their physiology is able to deal with the damage or prevent it. Or their armour is designed explicitly to manage it.
The bolter meanwhile is designed explicitly to get into things then explode.
Now strategy. You do see precision guided munitions, its just that theres a lot less of them.
Personally I think any major war scenario between developed nations would see these precision weapons quickly exhausted then never replaced. They are a lot of effort to make and maintain. Easy to justify and cover for in peacetime (or just engaging in one of the USAs foreverwars) but much harder to manage in an all out war.
I love how warhammer is so intricate a "minimalist description" still requires an essay to explain lol

5:13 - "The atmosphere that they're making with this, makes it feel so dark & gritty"
Main tag line for the games/books etc...
"In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war!"
Fun fact: The standard issue "rifle" for the Astarte's, The Bolter, is chambered in a .75 calibre. It basically looks like a massive M433 grenade and is a fraction of the explosive force. That's how you see all those soldiers getting ripped apart by the guns with a mere shot.
(I originally said a quarter, but looking through everyone's comment on this one, I changed it to a fraction, because in the lore of the Bolter, it was stated that it did have some explosive within the bolter rounds.)
its a .75 "calibre" fully-automatic assault weapon firing a self-propelled miniature armor piercing rocket, of a myriad varieties from standard HEAP, to viral, acidic, fragmentation, even fucking MAGIC inscribed rounds.
And the Bolter was made to be cheaper than what there was before it. IT STILL IS VERY EXPENSIVE THOUGH!
“Quarter of the explosive force” there is not actually any lore about how strong the bolts are. Writing has them anywhere from blowing a guy in half to killing him and several dudes around him. Considering we could easily do that with modern explosives in a .75 shell, I’m leaning towards it being anti-squad level power. The only reason grenade launchers aren’t like that is expensive of such explosives and difficulty of using a fuse for it in such a frame reliably. The Imperium would have no such issues for Astartes armament.
Best part is that if you slow the video down when they first board the enemy ship, the guy took the time to animate the explosion of the bolt round.
@@r4v3nw1ng1 When they put down the Inquisition agent, the elite's cape also moves in time with the shots.

@BenjaminTheRogue You can actually learn pretty quickly and the guy himself said that with modern tools it's a lot easier now, it's just all about effort and learning, if you are only willing to do a couple hours each week then it will take ages, but about four or five hours each day, you could probably get at-least competent within six months to a year.
Also, there are tonnes of tutorials online now, which wasn't a thing in the past, you had to read the 1200 page manual or something crazy like that.

Syama Pedersen: I’m glad you asked!
One singular person animated , and wrote this little segment . Clearly the omnissiah had favoured him and blessed him with the technical knowledge to make this work
4:48 Here's a fun fact: That's the Space Marine equivalent of "suppressing fire".
Also I just want to clarify some things:
The guys in the mask are Psykers, and the spinal cord-thing is part of their battle gear most likely. The guy in red is also a Psyker, who works for the Inquisition. Specifically the Ordo-Hereticus, based on the symbol on his cloak. Ordo-Hereticus primarily handles human affairs.
The "valves" on the huge ball are most likely Melta-Charges, basically huge bombs intended to totally destroy the sphere in case it does anything...odd. Inquisition doesn't mess around, much less Space Marines, with anything out of the ordinary, so even a faint glow could result in the sphere getting blasted out of existence.
Space Marines are humans who have first undergone extensive physical and mental training, then (don't quote me because I'm not up to date on this) have had something called a Gene-Seed implanted into them than further transforms them into the massive hulking monsters that they are.
Unfortunately, even an entire army of Psykers is useless against the Tyranid race (See: Shadow in the Warp)
The two spheres are not the same at different points in time. Everything that we see on the Space Marine ship and the (assumed) rebel ship are happening with two different spheres at the same time. But it's easy to get confused.
The trippy conversation was happening between the two spheres, and the Inquisitor was listening in. Apparently the sphere on the Space Marine ship noticed and didn't take kindly to it, so it possessed the Inquisitor's (which can happen, very often with Psykers) and either fried his brain after subjecting him to (what I only assume) were the sphere's own thoughts. Or he tried to turn the poor bastard into a demon to attack the Space Marines. Fortunately this particular Chapter knows exactly how many bolter rounds it takes to kill a demon-in-progress: All of them. Because if the Psyker had actually become a demon, it would probably take all of the aforementioned Melta-Charges just to weaken it enough for a couple squads of Space Marines to collectively finish it off-then blow up that entire section of the ship.
Demons in Warhammer aren't just horrifying to look at it, they're damn-near unkillable. And they can leave behind traces of corruption that really do require the entire area be "cleansed in flame".
The place the squad appeared in after getting sucked in was probably the Warp. I can't possibly explain the Warp in detail without writing a book, so let's just say the Warp is Hell. The shadow that attacked it in the Warp is very mysterious. Not sure what happened there, it could've been another demon but personally I think it was a psychic attack; either by a Psyker among the Space Marines or some kind of backlash from the other sphere getting rekt while possessing the Inquisitor's body.
Don't worry about his arm. That's like getting a papercut to them.
If I could recommend a book series for someone military minded like yourself. Gaunts Ghosts by Dan Abnet.

Not sure how many times these have been answered but:
“Who were those metal dudes and the balls?”
We have no idea yet
“Are the Astartes human?”
Technically yes, but they have been heavily modified since childhood to be hulking perfect soldiers of war.
And also, that dude who “betrayed” them was most likely a psyker (think Jedi that can use the force, except they draw power from the warp, which is basically save hell) and was corrupted by the ball.
@BenjaminTheRogue well... If the creator says they aren't... Then they aren't.
17:29
When you pause it at the moment it becomes bright enough to see, you can also see other entity of the Warp in the bottom right corner.
That creature that took the Space Marines told the other one that it wouldn't survive when it breaks it seal. You saw how bright it was with its blue glow, probably psy-energy and beings of the warp are drawn to it like moths to the light.
Also to add to yours. That black mist that surrounds the Marines and the black mist that hits the warp entity is likely the psyker's last ditch effort to save them before he got possessed.
@@keenfire8151 Can't be, they got the call to get out after the psyker died.
Why do you think I said this in the first place? Because alot of people thought that, but no. It is not the psyker.
@@archerbascha8757 the only reason i said that is because the time of the video isnt linear....and i follow the artist...he gave a thumbs up to someone who said that.
@@keenfire8151 Only because he gave it a thumbs up isn't the same as for him saying what is actually happening.
Not like the time everyone thought what those aliens are excactly, only for him to come out and tell everyone that they are made up ( and that he probaby got influenced by the lore a while back but couldn't remmeber it which is why they look familiar ).
And I am pretty sure I saw other thumbs up on other comments, either lore related or not.
And you can follow the timeline. The moment the Astartes is send back to the com station, the psyker is attacked by the alien. He wouldn't have time to help the Astartes on the other ship while fighting and losing that battle.
I am not saying that he couldn't multitask, but usually a psyker needs alot of concentration to fight any Warp related attack, especially at that skale.
And I also doubt that the artist designs the Warb entity in the backgrond the same way an attack of the psyker looks like. He has clearly shown that when he does something, you can distinguish anything what is happening on screen from each other, to let the viewer not getting confused.
There is also that moment the aliens talk with each other where the Psyker hears in. It was kind of foreshadowed that it is a bad idea to go into the Warp, since the one that breaks it seal and takes the Astartes said that it wouldn't survive.
I doubt that it was talking about a Psyker following it into the Warp.
@@archerbascha8757 The psyker used a 'spell' to save the astartes before he died. Thats all there is man, you're looking into it too much.
Astartes are all 10 feet tall, have 2 hearts and 3 lungs, they wield weapons know as bolters that fire explosive shells that drill into a target on impact then explode.
