Shame that Bricky didn’t even mention his name, denoting him to a footnote. The guy who took the throne while the emperor was dealing with Horus was Malcador the Sigillite. Right hand of the emperor and second in psychic power only to the emperor himself. Awesome guy, needs to be mentioned more.
@@zanderbeasley5868 I think Magnus was more powerful then Malcador. But I agree: Malcador is an absolute badass and surprisingly nice for the founder of the Inquisition. Especially towards primarchs like Ferrus and Alpharius.
@@AlphariusCLH Magnus was more powerful but Malcador was far more skillful in his use of warpcraft and ancient beyond all measure befor Magnus was even created.
It shows just how far above everybody else the Emperor really was becouse the moment Malcador toke the throne hes body nearly collapsed due to the psychic strain on hes mind and body. When they returned with the wounded emperor and Malcador left the throne he died nearly instantaneously and the emperor renamed him. "Behold the greatest sacrifice of our age! Malcador is Sigillite no more. Henceforth he shall always and only ever be Malcador the Hero!"
The Warhammer 40k timeline can collectively be summed up as: "Everything is relentlessly awful and you will die horribly." I'm reading Horus Rising right now. Can confirm, it's really good.
Yeah right. Except if you are a main character or any spage marine fighting a xenos. 40k is such a mess of bad writing and plot armor that even the grimdark is no longer presentn
20:40 For those wondering about this edit, Horus was found first according to official Imperium records. However, in the book about the Primarch Alpharius of the Alpha Legion, it suggests that he was found first, but it was kept a secret. Yet this version of events is unreliable because the main gimmick of the Alpha Legion is deception. The opening line of the Alpharius book is "I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
I mean, you can KILL their mind and eradicate their body, but even now it lingers as an idea, a virus of the mind cursing his executioners to the end of time. The Flayer is not "dead", because you cannot kill an idea.
Robute Guilliman. Talking about how "Humanity rages against the dying of the light". Will always be the reason I love warhammer 40k. We are in a hopeless situation, full of despots and tyrants, the worst possible future. but that is all humanity has. It's the only thing keeping us all going, if we were to use logic, we would all give up from how impossible this war against xenos and chaos is. BUT WE, ARE RAGING, AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT, SCREAMING VICTORY!!
i saw some other reaction where someone asked why to even care about humanity when they are all so awful. but -apart from the cool factor- its the desperate struggle for survival that makes the human factions attractive to many. almost every bit of cruelty and awfulness can be explained with it giving better odds for humanity to survive. that doesnt make them less awful, but it explains how it got to this point and why things will continue to be awful.
Bricky always has a great way of explaining the 40k universe as a whole. He definitely helps bring along new people and pays respect to veterans of the community as well. You guys have come a long way since the Every faction explained video and before TTS.
There's a great fan setting called Brighthammer 40K, which is basically the exact opposite. There is no war, no torture, no cruelty. There is only HIGH ADVENTURE! The Emperor is still alive and he leads a rock band. The Sisters are his support act. The Old Ones aided the Necrontyr and they live in peace. The Eldar never fell. The Tyranids are an intelligent, friendly race. The Tau are.... Exactly as they are in Warhammer. Only they are treated with horror as being the most evil thing anybody could think of. Because whilst they may look good in comparison to the factions of Warhammer, they only look good that way. In any other setting they'd be the worst bad guys.
Wish we get to the point where we start talking about current occurences, technically the story has moved to the 42nd Millennium (Warhammer 41,000 doesn't have the same ring though) and so much has happened since then. The fall of Cadia after the victory of Chaos in the 13th Black Crusade, the galaxy being split in two as a result by the Cicatrix Maledictum (the Great Rift), several Primarchs coming back to right the Empire in what small ways they can most notably Robooty Girlyman who is launching the Indomitus Crusade to take back those cut off worlds, Space Dwarves canonized with the Leagues of Votaan, Vashtorr the Akrifane a demonic machine allying with Abaddon the Despoiler and looking for relics to commit true fuckery of a galactic scale, Defector Commander Farsight having re-emerged and the Tau overally finally coming to deal with the Warp properly as a newer race and now most terrifyingly the largest mass of Hive Fleet Leviathan is beginning to attack while humanity is distracted with the forces of the Great Rift, with half the empire cut off and this is what we're dealing with in the Space Marine II game. Shit is fucked.
So regarding to Henry Cavill and Warhammer show - apparently it's being worked on in cooperation with Amazon. There're rumors however that this cooperation is not going too well due to Amazon trying to meddle with established lore and some unchangeable foundations there. Which Cavill is apparently resisting (after living through something similar with Witcher series, which Netflix butchered into oblivion) and Games Workshop only to some degree (female Custodes drama from couple of weeks ago). Apparently both companies have time until end of year to settle on initial draft for the show or it's cancelled with GW taking some financial losses there (detailes are very vague) and with supposed disagreements, Amazon might be intentionally delaying it right now to either escape from this situation without loss or pressure GW into submission with risk of them taking the loss. Now how true are those rumors? Hard to tell, because they are being reported on mainly by people who have very specific agenda and worldviews (in very short it can be describved as "anti-woke", take it for what you want). And as they earn money and thrive on similar issues, even the smallest ones, they often misreport, bend the truth or not tell everything to match their statements for those views and clicks. But not always. So yeah. It might be just baseless rumors, but there might some grain of truth there. It's messy topic.

The Infinite and the Divine is my personal favorite. It features a lot of slapstick comedy that you wouldn't expect from a 40k novel but pulls it off very well
Glad you guys enjoyed this vid! And, if you are at all interested in checking out novels, I also highly recommend The Infinite and the Divine. It's a great story, and whether you read the physical book or listen to the well-narrated audiobook, it's a very fun ride!
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I mean, it's the only one I can recommend of his list because it's the only one from it I've gone through lol! I still go back on occasion to listen to it on Audible.
Bricky is definitely one of the best Warhammer content creators, up there with WesHammer and PancreasNoWork to name two others! In fact, it was the latter I often quote when it comes to describing the Imperium; “In 40k, Human Rights in the Imperium is a set up to a joke that ends with you being shot.”
*Ever heard of Command and Conquer? It's this strategy game series from the 90s, where the tones of each game varies from 2 armies fighting over an alien power source, to fighting giant ants, to I kid you not,* *Einstein TIME TRAVELLING to assassinate Hitler, accidentally causing a different timeline where the Soviets and the Allies become enemies and create even more dangerous weapons, thus causing even worse death and destruction,* *and the Japanese empire invest into super soldiers, one such being "Yuriko," a school girl that was experimented on, who is now a psychic that can rip a soldier in half with her brain, so as I mentioned, absolutely unhinged sometimes.*
I am "the Ummm actually guy". Age of Strife began with the end of the Cybernetic Revolt (AI rebellion) and so did the galaxy wide Warpstorms which happened because of Eldar debauchery. When Slaanesh was born the Warpstorms cleared with it and The Emperor had just unified Terra under his control and began The Great Crusade.
I am not super sure, but most consider the Cybernetic Revolt (which wasn't some little conflict but a galaxtic event) to actually be won by the machines. Unfortunately for the toasters, defeating the humans wasn't enough and the other galactic powers, most likely the eldar among others finished the job. What are the implications of this detail: the eldar absolutely has a point about believing humans are primitive since they can't even control their technology. The liberating forces overtaking or leaving the human colonies in a sad state explains why there were still many human planets rediscovered during the reunification of the Great Crusade. Also explains why most surviving colonies were enslaved by some alien power.
The Necrontyr were basically gaslighted by their ruler, the Silent King into declaring war on the Old Ones, as their society was constantly suffering from civil wars and internal battles, so the Silent King believed that giving his people a common enemy, he could finally put an end to all the divisions and wars that had plagued them for centuries. He was technically right, as the all the Necrontyr dynasties did unify under his banner for perhaps the first time in their history...only for the Old Ones to CRUSH them during the war to the point the Dynasties fractured again and returned to constant infighting as the Old Ones continued making life like the Eldar or the Krorks (the ancestors of the Orks). Then the Necrontyr found the C'tan - star gods - and made living metal bodies for them to inhabit, which eventually led to the Necrontyr being tricked into giving up their flesh and souls to the C'tan and becoming the Necrons.
@@Mastercio is it? I thought it's the same. Because Szarekh is the last Silent King and he left the galaxy because he feels guilty for what he did to his race. Or atleast that what i read in the codex
@@PaperorPepper He cant be the same person as Necrontyr are short lived race, time between first war against old ones, then peace after their lose, then they found Ctans and made bodies for them and then they made a pact. Current Silent King is the one who made pact with Ctan's(and this is the reason he left galaxy, yes). But not the one who started this entire shitfest with Old Ones.
@@PaperorPepper Codexes mostly(and a little from The infinite and the divine). There is not much we know about WiH. But i seriously doubt they finished it under same Silent King... that would mean they got beaten under like 50 years at max(and i seriously doubt necrontyr could live that long). There is no way they would lose that fast considering even before biotransference was so big that they had under their rule BIG chunk of galaxy. Especially as we know that entire WiH lasted for more than 5 million years(this is from The infinite and the divine).
You guys should really check out some of bricky's other content outside of warhammer_40k. I recommend project wingman. Moonbreaker. Frostpunk or peagle review videos. They're all really good and entertaining
Man, I know he had to brush over so much but god.. All the stuff involving the major civil war between the ecclesiarchy and everyone else, Malcador, the discovery and overwhelming first contact with the Tyranids. I really hope Bricky just goes further into these "smaller" sections because I love how he words his summaries, and his descriptions of the universe are great for the novices of the unvierse.
he does have a podcast where he apparently talks about specific events with the other guy(s) on there. havent had a time to sink my teeth into it yet, but glancing at it, some things they talked about where the badab war, octarius war and arks of omen
I started the Gaunt’s Ghost and am on the 4th book Honour Guard, it’s been amazing if yaw ever get the chance to, I highly recommend reading them, if there's no time, check out the audiobooks that's what I do while I'm working
You should watch "The Awakening" the newest fan made cinematic, easily the best to come out since Astartes IMO, also features Space Marines vs Necrons and does their creepy themes much justice.
So what I'm getting at here is that.. everything that is wrong with Chaos all started with the Necrontyr and then the Eldar contributed to making it worse millions of years later. Hmmm 🤔
19:52 I like how he mentioned two Lost Primarchs without really mentioning them. It's because NOBODY has a slightest idea why they were redacted from history.
Um, Actually: The Age of Strife didn't start with the birth of Slaanesh; it was the 5,000-year labor pains of the birth of Slaanesh; the Prince(ss) of Excess consumed all the warp storms upon the completion of their manifestation.
A few things Bricky skimmed over, and when I say a few, I mean I apologise in advance for this, roll up your sleeves people, this is gonna get long. The Old Ones created the Webway, not the Eldar, the Eldar just exploited it and built cities within its labyrinthian tunnels, which eventually grew so large they become one collective continent sized city, Commorragh, eventually becoming the last bastion of the old corrupted Eldar, the Drukari or Dark Eldar. Also Bricky was half right, the Dark Eldar raid, capture, and torture the other races for fun and sport to stave off Slaanesh, but they also drain the souls from their victims and drink them from goblets like fine wine, which helps to replenish their souls so Slaanesh can't take them. The Eldar have their own more peaceful way, they adorn themselves with what are known as soul stones, so that when they die their souls are protected within them from Slaanesh. Eldar wraithlords, wraithseers etc. (akin to the Imperium's knights or small titans) are powered by deceased Eldar with said soul stones. Chaos also didn't exist during the time of the Old Ones as Bricky made out at the start of the video. The Old Ones had control over their emotions, and so the warp was a safe calm place, the sea of souls. It was them hurriedly creating new races to fight the Necron threat, like the Aeldari or Eldar, Krorks who became Orks, and various others as well. The Old Ones used the Webway, and the Necrons had no need of it and they loathed the warp, the newer races crossed the warp constantly like Humanity does now. These races were young and highly emotional beings, making the warp boil with emotion, desire, and dreams. All manner of cruel and dark things began to form there, bred from the minds of these races dreams and fears. It's unclear when exactly the first three Chaos gods were born, the old lore back in early editions claimed Khorne was born from the Dark Ages and Medieval period of Humanity, while Nurgle was born from the Black Death, but I'm pretty sure that's now been scrapped and they're likely much older with regards the current lore and the War in Heaven. Nobody knows when Tzeentch was born, since his plots, tricks and schemes run through all of time and even before he was truly born. The Emperor (again, at least from much older lore, which has been hinted at in much more recent lore so its probably still ok), was born in 7,000BC in Ancient Anatolia, modern day Turkey, known as the New Man. Earth was ruled before then by the wisest humans, shamans etc., who would die and their souls would traverse the warp, before being reincarnated to come back and lead their people. As the Sea of Souls grew more turbulent over the centuries with the newer races like Humanity, the now devolving Krorks, and others etc.; warp predators began to form which devoured these tribal leaders, who's psykic souls shone bright in the warp in contrast to the dull souls of most humans. The shamans, tribal leaders and wise men formed a council, and agreed to sacrifice themselves in the hopes that their collective souls would merge in the warp, creating the New Man. The New Man was born and grew to remember his past lives and powers, quietly guiding Humanity from the shadows, gently nudging us in the right direction through history, occasionally appearing in one form or another. It's thought that he may have been Jesus, or perhaps the teacher who whispered in Jesus' ear when young. There's a lot of evidence to suggest he may have been the one to imprison the Void Dragon (one of the C'Tan gods, or at least a shard of the Void Dragon, beneath Mars back in the 10th century AD (and the painting of him standing proud over it is very Konan the Barbarian in style, although again, it's unclear when it actually was, or where he'd have actually kept it if defeated, until he could trap it within Mars.). The whispers of the sleeping Void Dragon (which was known to manipulate machines) deep within the heart of Mars is likely what inspired the tech cult of the Mechanicus during the Age of Strife which the Emperor might have foreseen, and also perhaps its the Void Dragon they hear, not the machine Spirit or the Omnissiah. There's a book during the Horus Heresy (Mechanicum) where during the civil war for control over the Red Planet to determine loyalty to Horus or the Emperor, several of the books characters are directed underground and interact with the current very old guardian, and are charged with it's protection and secret. It's heavily hinted at that it is the comatose Void Dragon.
I hope u guys react to Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 overview gameplay, behind the scenes, and co-op trailer because in 2 weeks the game is gonna come out.
What I do not understand, from the beginning of the lore is, why does a race of "Gods" needs a robotic army, to hunt down another race of "Gods"? And why is that the one thing that works, against a race of "Gods"?
as far as i understand it, the c'tan originally lost to the old ones, but with the necron army it was very different, because they are more or less immune to warp sorcery, which was the old ones most powerfull tool of war. thats why they created the Krork who should be very capable of destroying the physical bodies of the Necrons, but it was too late. thats the whole reason for the Necrons to go into stasis; they simply waited until the powerfull Krork devolved into stupid Orks by not giving them any battles they need to sustain themselves
Hm, interesting Story, i wonder how 50K would look like? I will look forward to see the next Wild Card Wednesday, Speaking of which, I have been wondering, about the Suggestions for a Wild Card Wednesday, is it okay to do more than One Suggestion in One Comment?
An important part of Warhammer 40k has always been to not take it TOO seriously. The fact thay it's so unbelievably shitty, and really lacks large-scale hope means that you approach it with some tongue-in-cheek and ironic distance. space Marines are ridiculous. Titans are goofy. Chaos is pretty vaudevillian. Orks are straight up comedic. Instead, you can get your sympathetic character fix from the small-scale stories. The Ciaphas Cains and the Ibram Gaunts of the setting. The little guys just trying to keep their head above the waterline, as it were. They're not going to change the universe for the better (it's not designed like that, creatively speaking) but you can get invested in seeing how those characters manage to at least survive.
That Henry Cavill 40k series is on very unstable grounds right now becouse of what Netflix wants to do with it. Henry is an executive producer of the series so for the show to move forward he is required to sign off on everything that Netflix wants to do with the show and what they wanna do is absolutly absurd for lore resons and as of now Henry is downright refusing to do it. Netflix wants to include powerful female characters in the show and even though its 40k there are some really powerful female factions probadly the most widely known faction is the Sisters of battle, which Neflix dosent wanna include becouse they think they are too religious and the Sisters of Silance that work along the Custodes to protect Terra they dont wanna use becouse well they dont speak. At first Netflix wanted female Space Marines to have females in power armore which the owner of the IP flat out refuced knowing that it would tank there sales in Space marine models for the tabletop game. Netflix 2nd option was female custodes which Netflix somehow made the IP owner to agree with. There is only 1 problem with that. Henry Cavill recently quit the Witcher series one of hes favorite game universes becouse the producers dident stick to the lore and now Netflix are trying to do the same thing with Henrys favorite game universe 40k by introducing female Custodes into hes favorite faction in the 40k universe. Unlike the Witcher series where Henry was hired as an actor, here in 40k he is an executive producer aswell as an actor so if he dosent agree then Netflix cant do anything. Apparently Neflix has plans to create a Marvel style series within 40k and Henry is refusing to budge on the lore accuresy that Netflix is trying to change. There is apparently also another problem that if they cant come to an agreement of the show before the end of the year then the rights Netflix got to make the series apparently goes away and needs to be renegotiated with the IP owners.
@@gabrielchin4161 is is amazon amazon bought the rights to make shows in the 40k universe... think maybe fantasy too, dont remember and they already teased a show recently.

"I will die in this world, I will die on Armageddon"
-Reclusiarch Merek Grimaldus of the Black Templars.
Glad you guys enjoyed this vid! And, if you are at all interested in checking out novels, I also highly recommend The Infinite and the Divine. It's a great story, and whether you read the physical book or listen to the well-narrated audiobook, it's a very fun ride!
Thanks for the recommendation and narrowing his recs down to just one 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I mean, it's the only one I can recommend of his list because it's the only one from it I've gone through lol! I still go back on occasion to listen to it on Audible.
Warhammer 40K: In the grim dark of the far future there is only war, debauchery, slaughter, depravity...
Puppy: this is fine 💤💤💤💤💤💤💤
😂
Thanks for reacting to this! Bricky is always excellent.
Bricky is definitely one of the best Warhammer content creators, up there with WesHammer and PancreasNoWork to name two others! In fact, it was the latter I often quote when it comes to describing the Imperium;
“In 40k, Human Rights in the Imperium is a set up to a joke that ends with you being shot.”
The only time you'd get a sliver of human rights is if you're lucky enough to be picked up by a Salamander
Absolutely phenomenal video. So glad to see you do more Warhammer reactions. Bricky is amazing. As always stay incredible you two.
Thanks again! 🤗
I loved these videos too. Bricky's really good at visiulising the lore and giving examples.
Cool reaction.
Im new to warhammer myself and I love the videos you all make its like im learning with you all
*Ever heard of Command and Conquer? It's this strategy game series from the 90s, where the tones of each game varies from 2 armies fighting over an alien power source, to fighting giant ants, to I kid you not,*
*Einstein TIME TRAVELLING to assassinate Hitler, accidentally causing a different timeline where the Soviets and the Allies become enemies and create even more dangerous weapons, thus causing even worse death and destruction,*
*and the Japanese empire invest into super soldiers, one such being "Yuriko," a school girl that was experimented on, who is now a psychic that can rip a soldier in half with her brain, so as I mentioned, absolutely unhinged sometimes.*
The channel Jethild has a very deep 50 video playlist of Tiberium lore with videos from 15min to 50min depending on the topic.
Have heard of that before and have some reaction requests for it 😅
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Yeah, Bricky has 2 vids, Kanes Wrath and Red Alert 3, that are worth your time.
I am "the Ummm actually guy".
Age of Strife began with the end of the Cybernetic Revolt (AI rebellion) and so did the galaxy wide Warpstorms which happened because of Eldar debauchery.
When Slaanesh was born the Warpstorms cleared with it and The Emperor had just unified Terra under his control and began The Great Crusade.
Appreciate the corrections 🙂
I am not super sure, but most consider the Cybernetic Revolt (which wasn't some little conflict but a galaxtic event) to actually be won by the machines. Unfortunately for the toasters, defeating the humans wasn't enough and the other galactic powers, most likely the eldar among others finished the job. What are the implications of this detail: the eldar absolutely has a point about believing humans are primitive since they can't even control their technology. The liberating forces overtaking or leaving the human colonies in a sad state explains why there were still many human planets rediscovered during the reunification of the Great Crusade. Also explains why most surviving colonies were enslaved by some alien power.
The Necrontyr were basically gaslighted by their ruler, the Silent King into declaring war on the Old Ones, as their society was constantly suffering from civil wars and internal battles, so the Silent King believed that giving his people a common enemy, he could finally put an end to all the divisions and wars that had plagued them for centuries.
He was technically right, as the all the Necrontyr dynasties did unify under his banner for perhaps the first time in their history...only for the Old Ones to CRUSH them during the war to the point the Dynasties fractured again and returned to constant infighting as the Old Ones continued making life like the Eldar or the Krorks (the ancestors of the Orks).
Then the Necrontyr found the C'tan - star gods - and made living metal bodies for them to inhabit, which eventually led to the Necrontyr being tricked into giving up their flesh and souls to the C'tan and becoming the Necrons.
I would also add a little detail. Silent King that declared war in Old Ones is different Silent King than the one who make deal with C'tans.
@@Mastercio is it? I thought it's the same. Because Szarekh is the last Silent King and he left the galaxy because he feels guilty for what he did to his race. Or atleast that what i read in the codex
@@PaperorPepper He cant be the same person as Necrontyr are short lived race, time between first war against old ones, then peace after their lose, then they found Ctans and made bodies for them and then they made a pact.
Current Silent King is the one who made pact with Ctan's(and this is the reason he left galaxy, yes). But not the one who started this entire shitfest with Old Ones.
@@Mastercio oh...i see...where do you know this?
@@PaperorPepper Codexes mostly(and a little from The infinite and the divine). There is not much we know about WiH. But i seriously doubt they finished it under same Silent King... that would mean they got beaten under like 50 years at max(and i seriously doubt necrontyr could live that long). There is no way they would lose that fast considering even before biotransference was so big that they had under their rule BIG chunk of galaxy. Especially as we know that entire WiH lasted for more than 5 million years(this is from The infinite and the divine).
no matter how many time i watch it i love bricky !
You guys should really check out some of bricky's other content outside of warhammer_40k. I recommend project wingman. Moonbreaker. Frostpunk or peagle review videos. They're all really good and entertaining
Thanks for the recommendation 🙂
Magnus did nothing wrong, he was told to do nothing and he did it wrong
This is my favourite 40k reaction channel.
Yes! Finally I've waited soo long for this reaction.
Amazing as always 😊
Hope you enjoyed it! 🤗🙂
"Bloodwork" FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!
Man, I know he had to brush over so much but god.. All the stuff involving the major civil war between the ecclesiarchy and everyone else, Malcador, the discovery and overwhelming first contact with the Tyranids.
I really hope Bricky just goes further into these "smaller" sections because I love how he words his summaries, and his descriptions of the universe are great for the novices of the unvierse.
Feels like Bricky for the broad strokes and maybe Luetin for the nitty gritty 🤔
he does have a podcast where he apparently talks about specific events with the other guy(s) on there. havent had a time to sink my teeth into it yet, but glancing at it, some things they talked about where the badab war, octarius war and arks of omen
I started the Gaunt’s Ghost and am on the 4th book Honour Guard, it’s been amazing if yaw ever get the chance to, I highly recommend reading them, if there's no time, check out the audiobooks that's what I do while I'm working
Yeah need to listen to more audiobooks. 🤔
We will be glad to see you reacting to the Last Church. It is dramatized WH40K book, made by a fan. It is super thought provoking.
You should watch "The Awakening" the newest fan made cinematic, easily the best to come out since Astartes IMO, also features Space Marines vs Necrons and does their creepy themes much justice.
This is a bit unrelated, but the final episode of Murder Drones is out. It is all I hoped for, and so much more :D
Thanks for letting us know 🙂
I didn't think Bricky could get any better but, I was very wrong. LoL that was really solid. ^_^
Yall make drinking look fun for some reason
Try to have fun with everything we do and put our own unique spin on it 🤗😇
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames You guys are cool. I just wish you took anime more seriously.
So what I'm getting at here is that.. everything that is wrong with Chaos all started with the Necrontyr and then the Eldar contributed to making it worse millions of years later. Hmmm 🤔
Hey i've not seen those faces in a long time...
Nice seeing you again.
Right off the bat, ALIENS 👽
19:52 I like how he mentioned two Lost Primarchs without really mentioning them.
It's because NOBODY has a slightest idea why they were redacted from history.
It’s a shame the T’ua, the Tyranids, and the Orks weren’t mentioned even more.
We don't need to talk about the filthy tau.
Yall should play Shoots Blood and Teef. Its got couch co-op.
Is that the ork game referenced in this? 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Specifically when Bricky says the Orks are busy. Yes, they do have band in game. Waaagh! Let's git tah krumpin!
Um, Actually:
The Age of Strife didn't start with the birth of Slaanesh; it was the 5,000-year labor pains of the birth of Slaanesh; the Prince(ss) of Excess consumed all the warp storms upon the completion of their manifestation.
i would put the what if the emperor had text to speech in another play list
A few things Bricky skimmed over, and when I say a few, I mean I apologise in advance for this, roll up your sleeves people, this is gonna get long.
The Old Ones created the Webway, not the Eldar, the Eldar just exploited it and built cities within its labyrinthian tunnels, which eventually grew so large they become one collective continent sized city, Commorragh, eventually becoming the last bastion of the old corrupted Eldar, the Drukari or Dark Eldar. Also Bricky was half right, the Dark Eldar raid, capture, and torture the other races for fun and sport to stave off Slaanesh, but they also drain the souls from their victims and drink them from goblets like fine wine, which helps to replenish their souls so Slaanesh can't take them.
The Eldar have their own more peaceful way, they adorn themselves with what are known as soul stones, so that when they die their souls are protected within them from Slaanesh. Eldar wraithlords, wraithseers etc. (akin to the Imperium's knights or small titans) are powered by deceased Eldar with said soul stones.
Chaos also didn't exist during the time of the Old Ones as Bricky made out at the start of the video. The Old Ones had control over their emotions, and so the warp was a safe calm place, the sea of souls. It was them hurriedly creating new races to fight the Necron threat, like the Aeldari or Eldar, Krorks who became Orks, and various others as well. The Old Ones used the Webway, and the Necrons had no need of it and they loathed the warp, the newer races crossed the warp constantly like Humanity does now. These races were young and highly emotional beings, making the warp boil with emotion, desire, and dreams. All manner of cruel and dark things began to form there, bred from the minds of these races dreams and fears. It's unclear when exactly the first three Chaos gods were born, the old lore back in early editions claimed Khorne was born from the Dark Ages and Medieval period of Humanity, while Nurgle was born from the Black Death, but I'm pretty sure that's now been scrapped and they're likely much older with regards the current lore and the War in Heaven. Nobody knows when Tzeentch was born, since his plots, tricks and schemes run through all of time and even before he was truly born.
The Emperor (again, at least from much older lore, which has been hinted at in much more recent lore so its probably still ok), was born in 7,000BC in Ancient Anatolia, modern day Turkey, known as the New Man. Earth was ruled before then by the wisest humans, shamans etc., who would die and their souls would traverse the warp, before being reincarnated to come back and lead their people. As the Sea of Souls grew more turbulent over the centuries with the newer races like Humanity, the now devolving Krorks, and others etc.; warp predators began to form which devoured these tribal leaders, who's psykic souls shone bright in the warp in contrast to the dull souls of most humans. The shamans, tribal leaders and wise men formed a council, and agreed to sacrifice themselves in the hopes that their collective souls would merge in the warp, creating the New Man. The New Man was born and grew to remember his past lives and powers, quietly guiding Humanity from the shadows, gently nudging us in the right direction through history, occasionally appearing in one form or another.
It's thought that he may have been Jesus, or perhaps the teacher who whispered in Jesus' ear when young. There's a lot of evidence to suggest he may have been the one to imprison the Void Dragon (one of the C'Tan gods, or at least a shard of the Void Dragon, beneath Mars back in the 10th century AD (and the painting of him standing proud over it is very Konan the Barbarian in style, although again, it's unclear when it actually was, or where he'd have actually kept it if defeated, until he could trap it within Mars.). The whispers of the sleeping Void Dragon (which was known to manipulate machines) deep within the heart of Mars is likely what inspired the tech cult of the Mechanicus during the Age of Strife which the Emperor might have foreseen, and also perhaps its the Void Dragon they hear, not the machine Spirit or the Omnissiah. There's a book during the Horus Heresy (Mechanicum) where during the civil war for control over the Red Planet to determine loyalty to Horus or the Emperor, several of the books characters are directed underground and interact with the current very old guardian, and are charged with it's protection and secret. It's heavily hinted at that it is the comatose Void Dragon.
Try to react the "The Last Church: Tyber Portoghese's Iconic Animation"
I hope u guys react to Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 overview gameplay, behind the scenes, and co-op trailer because in 2 weeks the game is gonna come out.
We’re gonna try to fit in another 40k space marine 2 reaction 😅
This video is canon in Warhammer 40K
Henry cavil is working with Amazon to produce a warhammer series or movie or both depending upon how well it does of course .
Correction: The War in Heaven lasted roughly 6 million years.
I recommend reacting to Command and Conquer Lore. 😊
Long time no see. RUclips feed bringing back channels that just disappeared on me for some time.
You should check out some videos on Trazyn The Infinite. Best character in all of 40K :)
You need to react to Super/man A Christopher Reeve story. That trailer is very emotional.
Why y'all skip the beginning of the bricky's video? The beginning is funny asf.
yay, more warhammer :D
"Everything sucks, but that's the charm of it"
-Bricky
I know real life is hard yet 40k is infinitely worse.
I can say real life is worse in some aspects, cause it's shit that can actually happen to you.
Let's go nice reaction!
What I do not understand, from the beginning of the lore is, why does a race of "Gods" needs a robotic army, to hunt down another race of "Gods"? And why is that the one thing that works, against a race of "Gods"?
as far as i understand it, the c'tan originally lost to the old ones, but with the necron army it was very different, because they are more or less immune to warp sorcery, which was the old ones most powerfull tool of war.
thats why they created the Krork who should be very capable of destroying the physical bodies of the Necrons, but it was too late. thats the whole reason for the Necrons to go into stasis; they simply waited until the powerfull Krork devolved into stupid Orks by not giving them any battles they need to sustain themselves
@@uzrdutiutfiztdf3545 Cool, thanks for the explaination!
Don't care what nerds say, the Emperor is the MVP.
Caiaphas Cain = Blackadder, but WH40K. This is not a negative.
I blame the eldar
Hm, interesting Story, i wonder how 50K would look like?
I will look forward to see the next Wild Card Wednesday,
Speaking of which, I have been wondering, about the Suggestions for a Wild Card Wednesday, is it okay to do more than One Suggestion in One Comment?
Can you react to Iron Within, Iron Without by Warrior Tier
I love to watch this wonderful couple and their lovely reaction videos
I feel like I have watched this before.
am alcoholic shot means drunk sry gl
Aw damn I saw bricky and thought it was his frostpunk vid for a sec, one day
I was surprised to see how famous Warhammer is in China. I guess Chineses always had a thing for wars and hierarchy.
An important part of Warhammer 40k has always been to not take it TOO seriously. The fact thay it's so unbelievably shitty, and really lacks large-scale hope means that you approach it with some tongue-in-cheek and ironic distance. space Marines are ridiculous. Titans are goofy. Chaos is pretty vaudevillian. Orks are straight up comedic. Instead, you can get your sympathetic character fix from the small-scale stories. The Ciaphas Cains and the Ibram Gaunts of the setting. The little guys just trying to keep their head above the waterline, as it were. They're not going to change the universe for the better (it's not designed like that, creatively speaking) but you can get invested in seeing how those characters manage to at least survive.
It's been a minute.
Bravo.
React to “vox in the void” plz
That Henry Cavill 40k series is on very unstable grounds right now becouse of what Netflix wants to do with it. Henry is an executive producer of the series so for the show to move forward he is required to sign off on everything that Netflix wants to do with the show and what they wanna do is absolutly absurd for lore resons and as of now Henry is downright refusing to do it. Netflix wants to include powerful female characters in the show and even though its 40k there are some really powerful female factions probadly the most widely known faction is the Sisters of battle, which Neflix dosent wanna include becouse they think they are too religious and the Sisters of Silance that work along the Custodes to protect Terra they dont wanna use becouse well they dont speak. At first Netflix wanted female Space Marines to have females in power armore which the owner of the IP flat out refuced knowing that it would tank there sales in Space marine models for the tabletop game. Netflix 2nd option was female custodes which Netflix somehow made the IP owner to agree with. There is only 1 problem with that. Henry Cavill recently quit the Witcher series one of hes favorite game universes becouse the producers dident stick to the lore and now Netflix are trying to do the same thing with Henrys favorite game universe 40k by introducing female Custodes into hes favorite faction in the 40k universe. Unlike the Witcher series where Henry was hired as an actor, here in 40k he is an executive producer aswell as an actor so if he dosent agree then Netflix cant do anything. Apparently Neflix has plans to create a Marvel style series within 40k and Henry is refusing to budge on the lore accuresy that Netflix is trying to change.
There is apparently also another problem that if they cant come to an agreement of the show before the end of the year then the rights Netflix got to make the series apparently goes away and needs to be renegotiated with the IP owners.
I thought it was Amazon
@@gabrielchin4161 is is amazon
amazon bought the rights to make shows in the 40k universe... think maybe fantasy too, dont remember and they already teased a show recently.
For real though, FUCK Erebus.
Hopefully, games workshop the company, will listen to the fans and keep 40k as dark as it should be, if a live action series or movies are made they should be in the grim dark setting we all love and not be subject to the idiotic meddling of amazon's staff writers and backroom staff producers who'll only destroy the cannon lore like what's happened to marvel and star wars

Hello, if you are doing timeline of 40k by Bricky, please consider reacting to TIMELINE of the 40K UNIVERSE by Trazyn the Infinite (by Warrior Tier) - it could be even better because narrated from the perspective of our beloved necron collector and historian. ruclips.net/video/uxRY25TV_Po/видео.html In the darkness a blind man is the best guide. In an age of Madness look to the madman to show the way.
o_o reaction
Did you get bricky’s permission to do this?
The Imperium is not Fascist. That is ridiculous to say.
Exactly. Anti-Progressive? Absolutely, but not Fascist
It's a bit sad that Bricky is just flat out wrong in a lot of this.
they finally watched the proper video
no mention of erda lmao
Enjoy 40k while it's here. Games Workshop will be homogenizing it into just another generic fantasy universe
