Hey dumass Space Marines ding dongs still works for example look at the space wolves and salamanders the first have sex all the time and the second have actual wife's and kids that they visit regularly
There a line... No cutting in line
Dawn of fire 4 throne of light just dropped please by the emperors holy shit can you do a review on that!?!?!?!? Cause bro FUUUUUCCKKK
A Interaction for the Interaction God, a Comment for the Comment Throne, for the Almighty Algorithm
and gaunt?
Ollanius Pius: "So you're telling me I stood infront of Horus to protect the Emperor and I don't even get an honourable mention in this? You're mad lucky I can't come back!"
Commisar Cain would too exchange few words with him(mostly thanks that he didnt mentioned him)
He wasn't mortal tho
YEAH cain is so lucky he isn't ever written down as killed in action even after he died of old age he just keeps living
Ollanius didn't really accomplish anything, though. He jumped in front of a tank and died pointlessly. It was brave, sure, but not really worth anything. Everyone else on the list accomplished some great feat in addition to being stupidly brave.
@@LegatusLigeratus how many inquisitors are hunting you down
One fact I love about Yarrick is he heard rumours that the orks believed he could kill with a stare, so he got a laser implanted in his eyes to do just that
Playing up on their fears. He probably suspects or knows that the orks can subconsciously shape reality, so he uses PR moves like the arm and eye to build a legend around himself. The orks respect and fear of him might actually be helping him be badass even as a retiree.
@@Sgt_Glory OR
BECAUSE the Orks believed he could kill with a glance he got the eye.
Gestalt Conscious coulda been working right there.
@@TheLikenessOfNormal that’s not a thing people exaggerate waaagh far too much.
@@djcuevas1057
Might Yarrick’s longevity in part be because...
@@kelman727 No. Rejuvenation treatments are common among high ranking imperials. Yarrick isn't that old for a high ranking imperial.
You didn't mention Yarrick getting captured, fighting monsters to get out of a pit he was thrown in to die, launching a complex escape with the tired other prisoners. Getting captured again and Thraka being so impressed he released him to go prepare for another warrrgh because he was a worthy foe.
Some fella old man Yarrick.
Oh and i did all that with 1 arm because his claw got ripped off.....
What about his exploits as a child surviving on a world during an ork invasion, killing green skins and conducting a rescue mission before he was found and taken in by imperial troops.
Yarrick also being literally unkillable because the Orkz believe him to be immortal, WAAAAAGH!! doing WAAAAAGH!!-stuff and well, here we are.
@@zieg0r from what I heard of that, the Orks believe that only Thraka is able to kill Yarrick, and vice versa, so because of that, both are unable to be killed outright by anything else.
@@zieg0r Ork WAAAAAGGH energy only works for Orks, it doesn't work for anybody else. Yarrick is just that cool.
My head cannon for Sly Marbo is that he is a perpetual, but 1000s of years of constant war has mashed his brain Jason Bourne style. He remembers the moves but has no memory of any events he’s apart of
That's a good one
My head cannon for Sly Marbo is that "he" is a title/position. Like "James Bond", or "Kenpachi".
How do you become a "Sly Marbo"? Well, you do something bad ass enough, and the brass pins another medal on "Sly Marbo" before quietly executing you for disobeying orders.
That's why the IG can't "send Sly Marbo" - he's already there, he's EVERY Catachan sole survivor who pulls off some "impossible" victory - you just need a Catachan squad to get screwed over and a single guardsman to be blessed by RNGesus, and another "Marbo Moment" finds it's way into the meme-pool.
My favorite Marbo Moment was with a borrowed Catachan army - the Sargent survived a round of attacks from the broodlord that ate the heavy armor, and then killed it WITH A CHARGE. (He did only do one wound - but it was the LAST wound, and they were the last living things on the table, pure RNGesus, pure EPIC.)
Well there has been a history of Mortal perpetuals besides the emperor existing in canon. Hell, the one the fans actually like was considered to be the closest thing the emperor ever had to a friend. So much so that he was allowed to commit religious heresy through ought his existence.
However games workshop is really shaky about acknowledging the fact there were other Perpetuals besides the Salamander primarch, and the big E himself. They much prefer the "a company of Guardsmen got really lucky and smashed up horus's ship"
@@thefallencog There are lots of perpetuals and many worked against big e and chaos both. Erda was the one who put the idea of evolving humanity in big e head. Though I guess a lot of her lore is in limbo with many other perpetuals.
@@thefallencog I don't see how Games Workshop doesn't acknowledge perpetuals existing. They are in the literature. John Grammaficus and Damon Prytanis feature heavily for example. Anval Thawn is another well known perpetual. And of course Ollanius Persson.
I loved that even the Astartes respect Yarrick. There's a scene in Helsreach where some no-name Astartes captain mouths off and starts whining about not wanting to listen to a human. Yarrick just stares him down and keeps talking. All the other Astartes present (Grimaldus included) just glare at the Astartes like "Cringe dude, just stfu and listen to Yarrick"
Not only grimaldus but also high marshal helbrect
@@einaragustorvaldsson7716 now that's a fucking stare down fuckin helbrecth just like "I will take you off crusading STFU"
@Noot Noot Wants Noose Noose I think so.
@Noot Noot Wants Noose Noose I don't remember, but it was right before the Orks entered orbit I think.
@Noot Noot Wants Noose Noose No problem, lemme know if that's where it was.
If I recall, Yarrik also stared down an upset astartes in a war meeting, and won! Dude straight up glared a "sit your ass down, boy" a space marine!
Yarrick is the grand old man of the imperial guard!
The space marine disrespected yarrick in front of the entire war counsel full of astartes war heros and got eye fucked by everyone in there lol.
"I would turn this ship right away, young man!"
he had the year of experience to know when not to give a shit and tell a super solder to sit his whiny ass down
During that meeting, he looked at the other Astartes for support, and they gave HIM the "Shut the fuck up rookie, you're a disgrace" stare .
When more experienced Astartes than you ask a man for advice on how to best deal with an Ork horde, you should really sit down, shut up, and listen - THEY are better than YOU, and THEY are asking HIM for advice.....
Honourable mention for Mkoll of the Tanith First and Only.
His accomplishments:
Singlehandedly assassinating two Chaos warlords with explosives, both of whom were behind heavily defended fortresses crawling with armies of Chaos.
Beating a Dark Eldar Mandrake in a solo sniper duel.
Surviving 17 months on a Chaos world, including a run in with an entire squad of Chaos Marines.
Taking out a Chaos dreadnaught.
Out-sneaking three Space Marines.
Out sneaking and out witting Dark Eldar assassins.
Dropped out the sky only to survive and take out one of said warlords
Is all this in one book orr
@@mathewtaylor9124 In the Gaunts Ghosts books. Out-sneaking the three space marines was a short story called Killbox I think. It's good stuff.
I think Mkvenner and Dorden also from the Tanith First and Only should also probably count. Dorden was a pacifist with balls big enough that Astartes thought he knew no fear. Mkvenner was a member of the group which went to infiltrate a Chaos world and, when most of the team left, decided to play Night Lord against the Chaos world. Successfully.
You really do need a part two, like for commissars Gaunt and Cain. Gaunt outright killed a chaos space marine by cutting him in half with his ancient power sword. He also often leads his men to victory against heretic space Marines. Cain has also fought and killed several chaos space Marines, all while he has saved the galaxy several times over and bangs an inquisitor. An honorable mention would definitely have to be Jürgen. That blank has stared down every single threat the galaxy has to offer and his universal response is to shoot it in the face with a meltagun.
Yes
Since seeing the thumbnail, I thought about the heroes of Sabat
You are actually ancient if you remember Cain. Like me...
Cain believes himself a fraud tho, which actually makes him interesting as a character.
@@Hadwerd7 Cain believes himself to be fucking based
@@Hadwerd7 Ciaphas Cain thinks he's just scraping by to survive and hopefully keep the Imperial side winning too, which by his measure means he's not a real hero.
He doesn't realize that that's what most real heroes are doing :D
I would have liked a honourble mention for Ibram Gaunt and maybe Ciaphas Cain, but I totally agree with your selection.
That's not fair.... I'm like 90% sure Cain is the offspring of the God Emperor and the Laughing God
fr tho. Cain is such an unpredictable badass, that even after his official death and funeral, he's STILL listed as active duty by the departmento munitorum because the man has come back from lethal odds so many times.
We need a second video, come on majorkill you got this
Ciaphas Cain definitively
he schould have mentioned Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau
Gideon Ravenor, after helping Eisenhorn kill that chaos dreadnought, suspending it in midair for his former mentor to cut to pieces, but once again being forgotten by Makorkill: *sad wheelchair noises*
Meh, fuck Ravenor. Turns against Eisenhorn calling him a heretic for his use of daemonic weaponry and abilities, yet also uses prohibited technology and actively consorts with xenos. He comes across as a jealous, hypocritical incel in comparison to Eisenhorn.
he is alpha plus in the chair though.
Holding his own against the space marine psykers in the second bequin novel was also bad ass.
Man, imagine if macharius, Yarrick and marbo could have combined their strength.
Macharius summons a massive armada, Yarrick prepares The troops and tanks, while sly marbo goes behind The enemy lines To be himself.
And then there's Cain right on the frontlines, running right to the backlines and keeping morale on a higher standard than having Guilliman himself there with the conscripts
Now I need some Endgame battle where Yarrick, Creed, Cain, Macharius, Venner, Sly Marbo, and every other imperial guard bad ass all in one battle combing their experience and regiments to kick ass.
@@56thvraksgrenadierregiment72 Ollanius Pius is somewhere, where no one knows all they know is that the enemies have a lot less reinforcements from both tye mortal and immortal kind
Lotarra Sarin needs to return, but fused with the Conqueror, she should accept to carry only the best that Chaos has to offer
Or in an absolute Rage do a Warpseed Ram into a fleet of Imperial ships destroying them.
Like in the One good scene in Starwars EP8
In the words of bricky “LOTTARA SARRIN ABS, LET’S GO!”
"FIRE THE URSUS CLAWS!!"
New world eaters fortification: lothara
World Eaters are getting a codex update soon. Hopefully some new lore saying what happened to Lotarra. I also think she fused with the Conqueror.
I'd like a touching scene where Kharn is alone in a room seemingly talking to himself, but actually talking to Lotarra
I like the theory that Yarrick was unkillable on Armageddon because the Orks believed it and their latent psyker ability made it so.
He couldn’t be killed by orks because their waghhhhhh! Doesn’t effect other beings, but it effects the orks fighting him
@@mcarrowtime7095 That's a great distinction to keep in mind, thanks!
@@smithynoir9980 it also effects orkish technology, btw
I might be the only one that would gladly sacrifice my "junk" to have the same abilities as a Custodian!
A small price to pay compared to world domination
I dont think custodians are just like space marines actually. I believe they are more like Humans on the insides/organs but stronger. I think they have functional genital
An over power demigod that don't has to sleep, eat or shit. I'm in
Space marines don’t have genitals
But I’ve never seen anything that shows custodians to be the same in that regard
The real price for being a Custodes is the lack of free will 😅 would still be a good way to live, relatively speaking!
8:47 I hope she becomes a Daemon Prince of Khorne similarly like Valkia from Warhammer Fantasy.
And she has the Ursa claws as melee weapons that can be launched at an enemy and real them in
Or like ax'sanea the thrice possessed that would be cool but I doubt it being as though warp corruption merged her within the machine spirit of her ship
I think she merged with her ship via chaos-warp stuff. She's the greatest ship mistress choas hasn
@@franciscorui Nah I think she’s still around.
@@franciscorui nice
Macharius' Generals going rogue and creating their own kingdoms from the conquered lands is also in line with alexander lmao
Remember in 3rd editon of the Guards codex there was a couple of paragraphs on a text box randomly at the side of one of the pages telling this story and it totally captured my imagination.
@@revolver_84 I hate that they removed lore from the codexes, it was my favourite part
I think Guilliman's mother deserves an honourable mention. That seen with her and Curze was downright impressive.
I have never heard of this, could you explain it for me?
@@JustALittleGhostOfHallownestkonrad basically is doing all in his power to fuck around in ultramar when he chances upon guillimans mom after killing all of her space wolf guard
she basically spits at him- the night haunter and tells him to burn in hell after he tries to intimidate her
@@anirudhashok3332 nice
Another reason why I like that normal people in Warhammer 40K can beat space Marines or do things more impactful than space Marines is because becoming a space Marine it's basically sheer luck you have to be born on the right planet to be lucky enough to be picked up by a space Marine chapter you have to get lucky enough to survive the training have compatible genetics for the gene seed implantation and then you can become a space Marine and at that point with all the luck involved people of may as well just have been born space Marines but when a normal or below average individual is able to perform better than a space Marine in some way through their own hard work and constantly making the decision to do the best they can that's special rather than just being statistically unlikely to be a space Marine.
Being selected to become a space marine isn’t luck. You have to be exceptional yourself first.
@@drebodollaz3504 the problem is even if you are a exceptional individual the space Marine still have to come to your planet to give you the training and Gene seed you need
@@drebodollaz3504 Marine Aspirants are regularly just randomly killed during training.
It's still luck either way, but the numbers allowing some exceptional individual to prove themselves.
See, a shell doesn't really care if you are an individual with great potential, or not. But sometimes, the one surviving is one like that. And given the opportunity, they prove themselves. The exception to the rule are people with enormous luck, who somehow just keep going.
Thing is, these people are not normal. They are several of gifted people who comes from trillions and trillions people. So, it could be said they are even more rare than space marines.
Been reading the Gaunt's Ghosts books and what makes these so impressiv is the humanity of it all, something that can feel lacking in stories about huge, power armoured superhumans. That humanity makes the heroic deeds so much better every time. A couple of humans with lasguns, 3 grenades and a LOT of determination taking out the enemey commander in an incredible last stand? Sign me tf up
Mkoll !!
Lotarra was great in Betrayer, her banter with Angron was funny AF.
Instead of going for the meme you could have chosen Oan McKoll from Gaunts ghosts as number 5. He outsneaked a dark Eldar assassin and he outmoved/outsmarted a chaos dreadnaught. He also assassinated a Chaos warlord and he is one of the main reasons why the ghosts won many battles
Not even a regular assassin but a mandrake, a living shadow, and it wasn't even a contest. He also outplayed whole squad of white scars. Definitely deserved to be on the list
@@archetiip I think I haven't gotten to the white scars part yet xD. But good to know
"You're good..."
@@archetiip if you're referring to the one on the ship, it wasn't a squad of white scars but rather 3 space marines from different chapters, among them a white scar and an iron snake. But yeah, Mkoll is a very bad ass character, even getting captured just to infiltrate the enemy. I've heard he is Abnett's favorite character, which makes sense.
Poor chaos. Even a bigger punchingbag than Orks and Tyranids
Bruh they fucking blew up cadia and gave reality a new tear to leak from they’re wining.
If the Orks are given enough time it can possibly screw everyone except nids, since their spores are virtually invincible and they can respawn in 100 years. Given enough time and tech the orcs could obliterate everyone
Meh, they've had their fun, the horus heresy and the expansion of the eye of terror cutting in half the galaxy doesn't exactly scream punching bag.
@@agamer5953 krorks can fuck up the nids easily , orks themselves are one of the biggest headaches the nids have experienced yet they aren't even a quarter as strong or smart as krorks.
Skulltaker has never been defeated in a duel
Garran Crowe (think Sigismund but with Psyker Powers) had to cheat just to get a Tie!
Changeling is unstoppable. Had he killed and impersonated Zagreus Kane Horus would have easily won the Heresy
You forgot one .
Majorkill is an insane human character.
GIGA CHAD IN THE FLESH.
Yeah is impresive how much 40k hentai he is able to create without fall to Slanesh
He’s alright in 40k
But I prefer his 30k model.l, whole lots more chaddyiness if you catch my drift.
@@zaczane The codpiece had a lot more girth on the 30k model.
Major Killian, or simply known by his men as Major Kill, is one of the greatest commander's humanity has ever seen
You know Yarrick is badass, when even the Inquisition and the Mechanicum doesn´t want to tell him that useing Xeno-tech is heresy
Lotarra Sarin is the greatest character according to Kharn.
And she was definitely not pointing a bolt pistol at him while he said that
In the words of bricky “LOTTARA SARRIN ABS, LET’S GO!”
Kharn is a simp for Lotara
@@JIMT412 I think you meant to say Kharn, not Khan.
@@JIMT412 wouldn’t you be too cause keep this in mind the world leaders respect very few things, and even fewer people she earned their respect, and even their fear because even after he became a demon, Primark angron was still afraid to call the conqueror, his ship
Lotarra may have the biggest balls of any character in 40k. She also looks pretty badass in artwork. The fact she shot a astartes in the face, yelled at him, spit in his face, and sent him to his room and we he got made was defended by fellow space marines is insane. Easily baddest female in 40k.
She is my favourite character, even talks shit to angron sometimes, though I think he loves it, though doesn't really listen. I think she is the only human aside from malcador who has spoke shit to a primarch to their face. Love reading about her in the novels.
She's basically a World Eater in culture
That's why Khorne's corruption is affecting her
Lotarra has some big lady balls but not the biggest those goes to OLLANIUS MOTHERFUKIG PIUS for obvious reasons
With Lotara, it makes sense that she is above even the Primarch Angron because in nearly every Navy in the world, the Captain of the boat is the highest authority, even if a admiral boards the vessel. The only person who can challenge the captain is a doctor if they deem them not physically fit to be in command.
Commissar Yarrick and Sly Marbo are my 2 favorite ones actually. I am a huge fan of those 2 guys who are simply amazing.
Macharius needs to be a character in tabletop that has buffs on the same tier if not higher than guilliman, but you know the durability of slightly above a guardsman
You made a valid point about Eisenhorn not being corrupted by choice. Reminds me of the "Gaunt's Ghosts" novel, in which their squad returns from a chaos planet and the result is pretty much the same. Insane story though. Might be an idea for another list: "Top Unexpected Uncorrupted Characters". Also: Ibram Gaunt should be on a list like this. Dude's fucking badass.
Now that you've mentioned it, that totally makes sense, the Abnett-verse take on chaos corruption is pretty interesting.
Majorkill hasn't read that series yet unfortunately
Many of the Ghosts are kinda funny for being uncorrupted. While there are members who were corrupted, like the children who were turned into demon engines, it was really funny when they got back from the Chaos world and shocked the everyone for being neither dead nor corrupted. They have a book dedicated to how incorruptible they were.
@@cp1cupcake That book had one of the all-time-best moments in all of the lore: when Gaunt and Rawne just "held hands" and stood in for another. Small moment, but so damned impactful. Love it.
The fact that Alexander in SPAAAAACE makes even the primarchs look like complete amateurs by comparison fills me with no end of joy
considering that SM tactics in way to many books consits of "shoot it, and if it doesn't work, shoot harder" (and ofc this bulls..t worked), it is no surprise, that a tactical mind can and should easily outsmart them.
2:36 The legendary Sly Marbo
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHGHGGHH
Lotarra Sarin can melt Khans hearts with a plasma pistol
10:43 Commissar Yarrick aka The Giga-Chad who strikes fear into the hearts of Orks.
may i introduce you to ciaphas caine mr plot armor?
Daemons of Khorne and the Wrath scare Orks too
@@christiandauz3742 That's just Friday for Orks especially when they're in paradise on one of Khorne's daemon worlds.
The Orks see fighting as heaven to them.
@@TheWarmachine375
Fighting against normal opponents
Orks in Armaggedon ran away, passing by Last Chancers, when Daemons of Khorne arrived
@@christiandauz3742 Orks never run from a fight and loves a good Krumping.
If it were that easy, then the Orks would have been annihilated a long time ago.
But alas Old Ones created the Orks too well, as the only race that were literally made to fight and always get back up no matter how hard you try.
You just make them more excited instead.
Yarick can use ork tech because the orks believe he can. If you kill a warboss, it is not just accepted but expected that you will take his best bits and use them. So when he killed the boss and took the claw the orks who were there thought "fuck me, da 'umie gonna use dat claw and get stuck in!", so he could.
Stop that bullshit. Ork Waagh effect has many limits.
I will give an honorable mention to Tarasha Euten, Guilliman's adoptive mother. For context, Euten was the seneschal (a term for a steward or head of the household) of Konor Guilliman, Roboute's adoptive father. Euten was the person who raised Roboute, and it says a lot of her parenting skills for a freaking Primarch to obey her. Roboute, in turn, often sought her advice, even after Roboute had pledged allegiance to his actual gene-father the Emperor.
I should point out that Euten was already an elderly woman when the Horus Heresy broke out, and even then, still continued to advise and command the respect of Roboute. During the whole Imperium Secundus fiasco (which was partially her idea), she came face to face with Guilliman's erstwhile brother Konrad Curze, who had come to kill her and make Roboute despair. I need to stress: Euten is a feeble old woman, and when faced with a freaking Primarch who can kill her in a number of wayseasily, she looked him in the eyes and told him to "go to Hell". That is pretty hardcore, if you ask me.
When going through some of the lore of standard humans in 40k it sometimes makes me wish the human faction on the tabletop were designed different. Like rather than Space marines and guard being separate the Space Marines were just elite units in the Imperial Guard army. Make them potent and expensive and can only be deployed on turn 2 or later (Since SM's in lore show up after the IG have already been fighting). If you want to balance it against CSM subject them to the same thing but attached to traitor guard or cultists armies.
I remember that Imperium used to be a single faction on the tabletop back in the 1st ed.
But stopped early on.
Still would be interested though. Now with the new chaos and traitors released.
Eisenhorns relationship with the daemon is a great sign how he becomes more radical in his methods. Starting as a puritist who only performce his duty by the book he turns into a radical who uses everything at his desposal no matter how much it violates the rules of the Inquisition, making him an outlaw of the Inquisition and a wanted heretic in the process.
He first tried to kill the daemon and saw him as his Nemesis, since the daemon tormented him in his dreams and constantly tries to corrupt him. After defeating the master who bound the daemon to the materium, Eisenhorn binds and enslaves him in the basement of his manson, instead of literaly erasing him from exsistence, like he did with another daemon just a few hours prior, since Eisenhorn wanted to torment him in return by keeping him locked up for eternaty without any contact to others. Later he used the daemon as a weapon/tool and saw him just as such. After he safed Eisenhorns life multiple times, Eisenhorn starts to kinda befriend the daemon and even allows him to roam free as long as he answers to him, if he calls apon the deamon. They are kinda like Mephisto and Dr. Faust in the middle/end of book 2.
There is this incredibly sobering image of Eisenhorn made by, I think his handle was NRG? Eisenhorn and Cherubael are walking past a silvered window, and he's looking into a reflection of his younger years with all of his former compatriots. I still think about it every so often.
Yarik can use the arm cause A gork an mork recognize him as a true warrior and B. They think it’s fucking funny that a punny human fucks up jumped up champions claiming the gods favor >.>
A fine selection. But no Ciaphas Cain? Man is insane, fought off multiple traitor marines, killed hive tyrants (and a fucking mawlock) an Ork warboss etc. Cain saved entire systems, gained the respect of the reclaimers chapter sm, survived necrons not once but twice, foiled several chaos cults and the list goes on. He is likely more renowned than Yarrick (no shade) and is still in current lore the only Commissar listed as MIA by the administratum after having been buried with full honours for decades as he had survived too many times after been declared KIA they straight up ordered Cain was never to have his status changed beyond MIA. Also he fought and survived the 13th black crusade. Its not that the others dont deserve the spot just that Cain also did. Great work my man keep it up!
Not to mention he took on a Tyranid Kaiju with a sports stadium at one point, and won.
Cain probably bribed him to not be on the list.
0:40 this is why Astarties lineages that hold virtues in high regard, such as the Imperial Fists, or the Wolves of Fenris, actually respect mortals that demonstrate them
Lotara should become valkia of 40k
If game workshop didn’t do this…. They gonna miss out a lot of money
Well with World Eaters getting their own Codex.
Wouldn't surprise me if Lotara survives the Siege of Terra.
Ibram Gaunt chained a traitor marine kill streak with a sword so...
You could have named a few of the Ghosts over and above Big Ibram himself.
Mkoll, killed Eldar, killed a dreadnought, kills *no spoilers* but he is death.
Mkvenner, stood toe to toe with a wirewolf. Knows mental fighting skills. As good as Mkoll, if not better at stealth.
My dude forgot the biggest Giga Chad in existence. Ciaphas Cain. The dude litterally duelled loyalist space marines in training and got the first hits in, killed several khornite berserker in a sword fight in a 1 vs 1 a swarm lord and several orc war bosses. Dude is a beast and didnt even realize it.
*charges on to The Conqueror’s bridge*
*reprimands the Primarch Angron*
*says it’s HER ship*
*refuses to elaborate further*
*leaves*
Macharius is one of my favorite characters in 40k, just behind Ollanius Pious
Admiral Spire is one of my favorites; the dude literally sent two Black Crusades back on their heels just showing up and brought several of Abaddon's best lieutenants to their knees in the 12th Black Crusade.
The bulk of the bad-ass humans of 40k are the result of the fact that the Giga Chad Space Marines are so rare that mortal humans have to say F it; we are doing it ourselves.
Mortal Humans may not be the most impressive on the Tabletop; but God help Chaos in the lore when a determined Mortal Human has had enough of the Chaos God Bulls@ittery
Shame you didn't mention the idea of Yarrick being empowered by the ork WAARGH due to how much they believe him to be a nemesis of their warboss
3:54 That's Hunter from the Bad Batch
I'm biased from loving the whole series, but any 1 of the 3 biggest badasses from Gaunt's Ghosts could make the list. Gaunt, Mkoll and Mkvenner. Or, including others like Criid, Bragg, Larkin, Corbec, Rawne, Harkin, Ezra, all of the scouts, and about 30 other reccuring characters, the whole GG could be one spot.
Dorden is one of my favourites for this. Especially when Astartes look at him as an example of what it means to know no fear.
I find the irony of yarrick halarious.
Like, no, he shouldn’t have been able to just fit an ork mech arm on himself, much less be able to lift and wield it like he does but the fear he instilled in orks made them believe he could, and we know that orks can pretty much will anything to work just by believing it does. He’s a weapon of their own making and will continue to stomp them so long as they keep believing that he can 😂
from my very limited knowledge of 40k, wouldnt Yarrick being able to use orks tech mean that the orks believed he simply could use it, and the fact he can still use it means that word spread around and kept going around about him being able to use ork tech. fucking badass
One thing about Sly Marbo I like to fantasize is that maybe Sly Marbo is what Catachams call unknown bodies or unnamed soldiers, like John Doe. So there is a reason why "Sly Marbo" has many Stars of Terra, hundreds of missions, thousands of kills and is pretty much everywhere in the galaxy but no one can pin the guy down. It is really just the Expendables. The Catachams keep the practice because, at this point, Sly Marbo is kind of a saint of all regular joes from Catacham.
I demand ciaphas cain episode
CI-CI-CIAPHAS CAIN, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM
I just know that there were only 5 so that Cain can show up in a part two, though I have no idea if he's actually a badass or just the most insanely lucky character in all of 40k....
Both. He is human, with all the flaws, but he still (unwillingly) fights monsters with a chainsword and laspistol. And wins.
With the help of Jurgen
Too bad old age killed him and the Chaos Gods ate his soul
@@christiandauz3742 That part... I did not know :(
@@vtr0104
Chaos Gods pretty much claim the vast majority of human souls
Unless you are Malcador, a Custode or a Loyal Primarch your soul is not going to the Emperor after death
Chaos gives immortality and power that humans crave
Doombreed is still alive and has done much more feats than Cain
I'm going to jump in with a lot of others here and say that Gaunt is one of the toughest bastards in the imperium. He absolutely deserves a place on this list.
Baldermort’s fan-made character Commissar Rikart is the biggest Chad in the 41st Millennium.
Damn I'm probably going to start reading 40k now that Inquisitor sounds hard af
I like the idea Yarrick is functionally immortal purely because the Orks believe he is.
Honestly I think this could’ve easily made into a top 10 video. Quite a few absolute chads in the galaxy.
In the world where everyone takes this way too seriously it's really refreshing to hear you hit all of this and you've always is. I love your approach to all of this. It's refreshing, if not a bit irreverent but that's the whole point isn't it? Thanks for what you do man.
it might just be me, but i really appreciate the volume normalization.....i could be wrong but i feel like the audio doesn't get super loud and spike and stuff
Confirmed in Echoes of Eternity Lotara did fuse with the ship.
Hey Major, you’re probably not gon see this but thank you dearly for your fun humour, lore videos, and of course the hentai on patreon. Found you by searching for warhammer videos and came across you and have not regretted being a new fan along for the ride. Your videos been helping me out a lot for the past 2 weeks which have been very very shitty to me for the past month and so I wanted to say thank you for you making this RUclips channel and for also helping me get into warhammer even more :))
Eisenhorn: too stoic to get corrupted or too dense, considering his mindset in "The Keeler Image"
I know he's a meme but ciaphus cain has actually earned the respect of some space marines, namely the reclaimers chapter, and practice dueled on many occasions with one of the ships tech marines brother captain gries who was impressed with cains swordsmanship 🎵🎶 hero of the imperium!🎵🎶
I wish Lotarra escaped with the loyalists, shexd be such a badass in 40k
but she is not a perpetual ... she would be loooong time dead in 40K if she stayed loyal
great list. Oan Mkoll Scout Sergeant of the Tannith 1st deserves an honorable mention IMO he bamboozled a mandrake, solo'd a blind dreadnaught with a laz gun, assassinated CSM warlord and outplayed 3 white scar astartes in a mock hunt.
Lotara also pulled off some mad shit during the space battle over nuceria, managing to inflict heavy casualties on the ultramarines, destroy plenty of their ships, and prevent them reaching the surface for a good amount of time. The world eater captain she shot redeemed himself in that battle and in her eyes, for whatever its worth. The end result was the ultramarines being driven off altogether, so pretty neat.
Can you maybe do lore on the Imperial Army (30k Imperial Guard) both loyalist and traitor?
You know I'm surprised we don't have any special named chaos cultists characters
Seems like every special chaos character is a traitor marine or daemon
Literally Lotara.
@@bloodangel19 yeah but one that's active in the setting.
yeah there is lots of potential for human chaos characters. Gifted chaos cultists, rogue imperial navy admirals, traitor guardsmen, psykers turned sorcerers etc
As Sly Marbo once said, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Normal guy who can solo superhuman enemies with nothing but raw human potential, basic equipment and their wits" is my favorite character trope.
Solid snake, batman, Commander Shepard, and so on...
Alexander didn't end his expansion because his men quit. His men quit and he gave a badass speech and then they agreed to fight again. He went to prepare for further invasions and died of natural causes.
The saying was "The Gods killed Alexander, for if they didn't he would one day have invaded the heavens".
History = more badass than fantasy :)
EDIT: look up on RUclips his speech. We don't know EXACTLY what he said, but it's still badass.

That was the Opis rebellion. That occurred around modern Baghdad while he was still fighting the Persian empire. He executed the ringleaders of the rebellion and inspired his troops to continue.
However, his soldiers did successfully mutiny a second time, whilst he was conquering in India. At the Hyphasis River they once again refused to go further, and Alexander was persuaded to turn around so that his troops could finally return home. It is this second time that is referenced the Macharius story. Alexander then died of sickness in Babylon years later, where he had returned after this event.
@@SamGlaze Alexander still has plans to conquer but on another frontier like Arabian costs all the way to Carthage.
So...
She basically managed to remain uncorrupted but instead of saving her ship from that fate by blowing it up, she decided to put up a pointless struggle and achieve nothing?
Can't say that's a great way to go out.
Grimderp
Macharius had a great rule back in the day, he had an 3+ invul and a rule that said you may begin the game. no dice rolling, no seizing the initiative.
Two more fun Yarrick facts:
1: His daily drive is a baneblade
2: A baneblade once ran him over, he walked it off.
I would love to see lotarra come back in the new world eaters codex
mybe as a lord of war as a mega demon prince or i suppose demon princess
Still i would love to see her on the table top
We need demon princesses, especially of khorne
She was a ship commander that refused to leave it. Chaos machinery is known to absorb its pilots. While I would love to see her return to lore, it would be a solid bit of character assassination to have her be on the tabletop
Uh, Kossolax is the current captain of the Conqueror
She could have become a Daemon Prince like Ingethel
Lotarra should be the mind of raging mucles and axes of the World eaters, making them an actual galaxy wide threat again.
Just my opinion, would be awsome.
Yarrik's balls of sheer Adamantium are so legendary that even the Ork's respect him. Hence why I love him!
Angron: Are we there yet?
Lotara: No
Angron: How about now?
Lotara: No
Angron: Are there yet now?
Lotara: Ask me that one more time and I am turning this ship around!
Angron: Sorry.
Honestly, I know it's a bit up to interpretation, but I personally think Eisenhorn wasn't corrupted by torment because, well... he already was a maximum heretic by that point
Yeah that dude is 100% touched by the wrap. That Eldar mate of Gideon's straight up says he is.
@@somethinglikethat2176 I know calling out obvious typos is not a good look, but man
"Touched by the Wrap" if games workshop ever opens a tortilla place this is what they should call it. Its genius
Disgrace that you didn’t include Oan Mkoll, the man is literally a ghost within the ghosts and hinted at being a Nalsheen.
Wait, wasn't Mkvenner the Nalsheen one??
@@Spoons213 Correct. Ven comes from a long line of Nalsheen but didn't finish his training because he joined the guard. Mkoll gets most of the glory as he is the Scout Sergeant, but Mkoll has said Ven is the best of the scouts.
I've always believed that the reason Commissar Yarrick is able to wield and use an Ork Power Claw is because he knows Orks so well, he's figured out that they literally just will things to work and is able to also will the same things to work like an Ork would. 🤔
my man Gregor Eisenhorn is litterally too angry and doesn't have the time to be corrupted by chaos .
Cognitae can't kill themselves
Lotara, first waifu of 40k
Please do another video like this one. You missed a couple of characters that would fit well into this category. Other than that great job as always
The imperium losing the newly conquered star systems is a reference to how Alexander’s empire broke up I to successor kingdoms after his death
I know it is not meant as comedy but when Lotarra explains how the conqueror is in danger of being destroyed because the world eaters have gone crazy and randomly start to kill the crew and damage the ship is so funny. Lotarra also is friends with Kharn and when some of the world eaters and part of the crew wants to escape she tells kharn about it and watches as he kills the leader of the traitors.
No life, so I'm here right now
I would’ve loved to see Ibram Gaunt mentioned here, especially due to the status he reaches during the novels and the fact his claims the title of ‘Colonel-Commissar’ but really any of the Ghosts would be accurate as the named ones specifically are incredible. But this list is still great.
The fondling motion when he said balls, absolutely killed me
I think M'Koll needs to be up there. He's clearly one of the stealthiest and most dangerous hu mans that have ever existed. He has insane feats.
Those guys are pretty cool but Belisarius Cawl dwarfs space marines!
#fakenews
I'm so glad Warhammer 40K has normal humans that can beat space Marines and do important things because I don't like it when stories have ordinary people being forced to sit on the sidelines while the superhumans actually do important things.
Ok but logically it would make sense for t then normal people to sit on the side lines and let the genetically created super soldiers t fight the crAzy monsters in the galaxy
@@sond.lollipop8919 yeah it does make sense if normal humans aren't qualified to deal with the situation it would make sense to bring in more capable individuals but I would just like it if a normal person made the right choices they can become one of these more capable individuals rather then relying on luck.
I love how everyone draws Sly Marbo in a way that makes it that this beast doesn't even know what is going on xD
Gaunt:hey major kill,hows your health plan
Majorkill:hey what the f-
Gaunt: APARENTLY IT WAS GREAT!
