Everything below is for the omnissiah. But like, you can read it if you want. Just a synopsis of the video you're watching.
The High Lords of Terra are the ruling council of the Imperium of Man in Warhammer 40,000, a central body wielding immense power and influence over the galaxy-spanning empire. Originating during the Unification Wars, the earliest form of the council was the Magisters Temporal, succeeded by the Lords Civilian, and eventually evolving into the four High Lords Civilian, tasked with overseeing the administrative and military needs of the fledgling Imperium.
The High Lords of Terra consist of various permanent and rotating members, representing crucial segments of Imperial power. Key positions include the Master of the Administratum, overseeing the bureaucratic and administrative apparatus; the Fabricator-General of the Adeptus Mechanicus, representing the tech-priests of Mars; the Inquisitorial Representative, ensuring the interests of the Inquisition; the Grand Provost Marshal, head of the Adeptus Arbites for law enforcement and internal security; the Master of the Astronomican, managing the psychic beacon essential for warp travel; and the Ecclesiarch, leader of the Adeptus Ministorum, the state church.
During the Horus Heresy, the High Lords, then known as the Council of Terra, played a crucial role in defending the Imperium. They coordinated efforts against Horus' forces, managing resources, military campaigns, and the strategic defense of Terra itself. Key figures like Malcador the Sigillite, the Emperor's regent and the first Lord of the Council, were instrumental during this period.
The High Lords of Terra's history is marked by numerous coups and power struggles. Notable events include the Reign of Blood, where Goge Vandire, as Ecclesiarch and Master of the Administratum, led a tyrannical regime almost destroying the council's credibility. The War of the Beast in M32 also brought significant upheaval, as the High Lords navigated a crisis of unprecedented scale, balancing bureaucratic and military needs.
In the modern era, the High Lords maintain significant influence. The return of Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines, introduced new dynamics, with Guilliman both opposing and aiding the High Lords. His reforms and his role as Lord Commander of the Imperium led to significant changes, including purges and reorganization efforts to streamline governance and military response. The High Lords of Terra are crucial to Warhammer 40,000 lore, embodying the complexities and challenges of ruling a galaxy-spanning empire. Their actions and decisions have far-reaching implications, making them a critical focus for deep dives into Warhammer 40,000's intricate universe

It was supposed to be an Alpha legion episode until Alpharius rear ended Koda
Why did people think it was gonna be an alpha legion episode
@@aviumstrepitus5158 On patreon he said that the high lords of terra was just a front for the alpha legion during the poll with the different three different traitor Marines
@@aviumstrepitus5158 it isnt....now...
Iysander said they were the alpha legion in the last bracket. Only to let us know the alpha legion is always an option only hidden in plain sight

The Chanceller of the Estate Imperium: The record keeper. It seems underwhelming, until you realize that general secretary of the soviet union was how Stalin rose to power. You've got 12 old men around a table, and one of them is in charge of remembering what they've already decided.
General secretary was the guy organizing politburo, not a guy in charge of records.

I served in that station for nearly eighty years. I saw the composition of the High Twelve change over that span as death and rivalry took its toll. Some of those lords were vicious, many of them narcissists. Two were positively psychotic, and I remain convinced that I am dedicating this vote to the 12 hour Heresy video!

Rome had this period known as "the five good emperors" at some point, so i think the max of semi competent benevolent dictators they got had to have been 5.
Important to note that none of them were biologically related. They were all adoptive father and sons. Then Marcus Aurelius left it all to his biological son Commodus. The reason it stopped at five good emperors.
@@eimhinduffy5736 so the lesson is as always: dont let your kids inherit power they havent earned
@@eimhinduffy5736😅 30:02 😅
Also important to remember that not one of them was actually benevolent. Rome was a vile empire. It's just been massaged by historians who were morally aligned with it. Never forget that they owned slaves and slaughtered innocents for their own gain. Not every civilization did that, and certainly not to that degree.
@@eimhinduffy5736 so, you tell me the solution to good dictatorship is adoption?
My vote goes to battle suits to spare them the agony of making the kinky space elves youtube friendly for another week.

The Guilliman thing of taking over, changing a few things and then leave reminds me of that programmer story; guy gets hired at software firm, fixes the one bug that's been annoying him for years and then gives his new employer his 2 weeks notice.

As long as the High Lords continue to believe themselves in control they pose no threat to the Imperiums true rulers.
Hydra Dominatus
Fun fact: all 12 High Lords are actually Alpha Legionnaires. They also don't KNOW that the other 11 are also Alpharius.
Technically, the one thing uniting all of the scattered factions if the Alpha Legion is that they pretty much all see the destruction of the Imperium as the only way to save humanity haha
They are all genestealers beliveing they are alpha legion.
I dedicate this vote to the tortoise video that was teased in the white scars episode

@@Junk_Cat_0 Now you are a true ultrachild of ultramar. Here is your one free ultravoucher for an ultrasubmarine sandwich.
I've found that the small crimes like the ice cream in the back pocket don't tend to get enforced, except in two situations - the cop is either having a bad day or you've somehow managed to piss them off to the pint that they're going to charge you with *something* or it's being tact on a bunch of other, larger charges to make a point.
Correct, attitude is one of the most influential variables in an arrest/charge. Sadly many people fail to realize that being polite, humble and helpful can be a huge tactical advantage if you use it right. Ego gets in the way and situations that would have resulted in a “just don’t do that again, have a good day sir “ spiral into “ get out of the car and put your hands behind your back.
Being nice and polite even when you don’t mean it can be the difference between living life in easy mode and having a terrible time.
Dark eldar, secretly the Alpha legion
"You ever seen scanners?" SAO-A MENTIONED, YOUR GOD HAS ARIVED AND HE IS FRESH OUT OF MERCY

You guys are my favorite warhammer podcasts. I absolutely love your content
I picture being around the emperor as being like standing in a room full of old electronics, you get a vaguely audible tinnitus style whine from overcharged capacitors.
Imperial Rome famously had The Five Good Emperors who were: Nerva, Trajan ,Hadrian ,Antoninus Pius , and Marcus Aurelius. They had nearly a century of pretty solid rule.
Also, I am gonna giggle at you guys doing a RUclips friendly video of Dark Eldar.
my favorite part of the week is when isyander and koda upload
High Lords of Terra remind me of the Board of the East India Tea Company in the grim darkness of the future.
I want to vote against the Dark Eldar and For the Tau Crisis suits.
Agreed
Been waiting for a Dark Eldar episode. It would make my week.
One could argue that what the Romans called the 5 good emperors ( Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian,Antonius pious and Marcus Aurelius) were the longest streak of "benevolent and capable" autocratic rulers.
5. There were 5 noble emperor's and they all ruled one after another. Then it was a steep decline. Nerva-Trajan-Hadrian-Antonius Pius- and the one everyone knows Marcus Aurelius
A vote for Dark Eldar, and throwing Dark Krakens into the suggestion pot
Yes, been waiting all week for today's episode.
I want a stodgy looking high lord whoes actually a really good and effective leader. Ruthless but never cruel, aged but not diminished by the time abyss. And just happened to hit every branch in the ugly tree when he was born and with a scowl that would curdle milk. A face made to hate hiding a decent mind and heart
Vote for killer mech suits... For the greater good.
Negative 1

I want the crisis suits and I vote against the dark eldar cuz it's going to be very difficult for you to make it RUclips friendly for those sharp ear bastards
I would like this guy's vote specifically deducted because I like the struggle of bring DE to youtube
Let the Crisis rise!
basically the entirety of the video being called "A preamble" in the video sections is funny to me
im very glad a new video is out to watch its fun to learn things here and enjoy the way someone tells it and enjoys telling it
I dont wanna be like James and his workshop so I wanna see a Dark Eldar content
Dark Eldar has to get my vote. Censoring it enough for RUclips will be hilarious.
Megamind meme NO ALPHA LEGION? I do appreciate the satire of the old High Lords better, the new Lord Commander Militant looks like a superhero
The dark Eldar of course. Plus we need more content on them
Crisis Suits
Dark eldar would be a fun one, let them escape the shadow realm
Pursia got 2 great rulers. Syrus the great and Darius the book keeper. They were not back to back but it's something
I love the edit cuts to new drinks on your desk Isyander :) Also, I vote for the Tau Crisis Suits!
For the greatest good Drukari!!!! They’re the only ones who could save the emperor!!!
Crisis suits go pew pew
Tau crisis suits just so the dark eldar stay banished to the shadow realm
19:53 The Great Crusade smashing through the Galaxy and all the xeno races, while in the background you can hear the Emperor going *"Horus! Horuuus!"* like one of the protagonists in the game Heavy Rain, calling out for his missing son.
58:22 The realization. IT IS NOT OFTEN but the favour is returned! Hearing Koda sigh in exasperation is priceless XD
4th Caesar was Calligula, he had his horse in the senate, among other things. So no, not 4 benevolent, competent rulers.
Calligula was the 3rd Emperor, and the 5th was Nero.
@@LAHFaust correct, but he was the 4th Caesar as Julius Caesar wasn’t technically emperor, but was a totalitarian ruler.
Caligula declared war on the sea, then Nero Claudius burned Rome to the ground
Dark Eldar! We NEED the kinky space elves!
Master Archon invites you to his pleasure/pain hall and opera. Commorragh awaits. Dark Eldar
I love you guys! I watch every week for new stuff. I need to ask again to put my boys The Sons of Malice in the new poll. I really want everyone to know about the true 5th Chaos God.
Crisis suits next please.
I would love to see the crisis suits

Koda, Guilleman handles logistics within his order, and within the wider Astartes. The scope of the High Lord of logistics is MUCH greater than that and if Guilleman took on that role his time would be taken up entirely by Imperial admin and he wouldn't have time to y'know, BE A PRIMARCH.
58:00 honestly I thought when isyander said nundam I thought he was combining nun and gundam
First,
never thought id be that Guy,

Give me the crisis suits

Alpha legion or dark eldar because either one will fry their brains either trying to just explain or explain in a RUclips safe way lol
There is actually one example of a set of dictators who had a good, benevolent reign in a row. Specifically, it was the Roman Emperor Nerva and the 4 emperors after him, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, and Marcus Aurelius. These 5 emperors came after the collapse of the Flavian Dynasty, and reinstated the Pax Romana, or the peace of rome among its citizens. They built such great works as the Roman Forum, greatly expanded the territory of rome, and enacted many reforms that made life better for individual men and women. Each of their reigns only ended because they died, and were not assassinated (which was a massive w for the time). Augustus Octavian was probably the best emperor, but his great grandson(I think) Was nero, and he did some BAAAAD stuff.
The fact that out of the dozens of Emperor's Rome had, five of them were considered "good" says more about dictatorships than the fact there were good Emperors does.
Crisis battle suits please and thak you for your consideration.
My vote is what ever makes Koda's day worse for this not being an Alpha legion episode. -Love The Night Lords.
