I know everyone believes it was well explained, but even blue primarch couldn't have set it all up? Why do I smell contrivances?

Even if he was a big player, why did the machanicus let it happen? Did girlyman also plan for the nuts that the machanicus would become? Why wouldn't the inquisition help or stop him? Did they also know and get orders that never existed before cawls book? Why would the brilliant cawl wait for girlyman? Why would brilliant cawl not just betray the imperium? Why would brilliant cawl not just fix all the gene seeds? Why do they still have flaws? And why would they hide it from Astartes, why not just integrate it into Astartes from the get go instead of bringing untrained and uninitiated? Is this all explained by Cawl being the smartest ever? Even the emperor wasn't a good father? So how the fuck did Cawl achieve everything here without being burnt to death? I hate to have to read a book I already know makes no sense in lore. I already know Corvus achieved it before cawl, but Cawl gets all the acknowledgement, fact given by how hard they're pushing this one genius... Honestly sounds like a Mary Sue, but people are so bloody blind that they think time makes it make sense? You do realise, the emperor needed help from chaos god's, who knows how far back the emperor had planned this(this would fit in fine as we know the emperor is 50k years or older). It's not that the emperor is better it's the fact that this ONE person made everything better that the emperor and mars did? Can one person no matter how smart make a difference in this type of universe, no the simple answer is no the long answer is that cawl is a Mary Sue.

    Oh, Volkite Weaponry...
    I had an encounter with one at the hands of an inquisitor at the end of my first session of dark heresy.
    It was an impressive scene - the psyker, his actions having led to the success of the mission, stopping a greater demon of khorne from manifesting, knew what had happened to him, knew what began to amplify his powers halfway through the mission. Warp Parasites. Demons.
    He asked the Inquisitor for a moment to take a last drink from his flask of vodka.
    The Inquisitor nodded and the Psyker drank, half of it, than gave the bottle to the grim demon hunter.
    He closed his eyes. A bright flash, and it was over - his head erupting into flame and glowing ash.
    The Inquisitor still carries that flask with him.
    That evening, I asked my Game Master what the name of that weapon was - at times, my memory can be a bit unreliable. He answered, and I took the dive - the dive into the grim darkness of the far future. I read about tech, I read about space marines, about chaos, then about Xenos. I stumbled over Astartes and TTS, then about Majorkill, Luetin and Auspex Tactics. I discovered the Orks for myself, a faction I feel deeply connected too, for they share my main motivation - that being fun. I now own round about 1000 points of orks, but I don't intend on stopping anytime soon - I am just a very slow and deliberate painter, and can happily invest a hundred hours into one mob of ork boyz. Than, while searching for more lore on my very favourite piece of wargear, the Shokk Attakk Gun, I found your channel. I watched your kronan videos, and then many more - and now, I am watching this video, on the very weapon that has started this little adventurous journey of mine.
    What a delight.

    I loved volkite weapons the moment I heard of what they did. They’re essentially a plasma beam rifle and flamethrower rolled into one weapon. For me it’s the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup of Warhammer armaments. Two of my favorite things melded into one.

    Volkite weaponry has also made a small resurgence in the armaments of the questor traitoris, as the new Knight Abominant is armed with the volkite combustor, and it is a devastating piece of wargear capable of putting holes in tanks like they were made of wax. Next to meltas, volkite has become something of a favorite delete button for me when the ruinous powers smile on my dice rolls.

    What do you people think is the range of a volkite, it's clearly far less than that of a bolter by at least 1.5km but it's not an actual laser weapon, but is a thermal beam? So cuts through armour like butter and burns flesh to ash but is also very expensive and resource heavy to field.

Let him lead a team of handpicked techno geniuses from across all the galaxy's forgeworlds or something, some more interesting mechanicus characters to explore rather than just "Yep, that was me.
