“Never underestimate the Imperium’s ability to screw things up.” -Traitor Guardsman
Never forget that when Guilliman first heard about the modern Imperium, he was tempted to just give up because of how f*cked things had gotten.

You forgot one major detail, majorkill: when Huron got burned, he went full bald. It was then that there was no turning back
The real reason Horus betrayed the emperor
Male pattern baldness, the greatest threat to the imperium
Astral Claws - the reason why the Lamenters got a lot of shit as scapegoats and took the Penitent Crusade for it
the lamenters were being hated long before this. hell they couldnt even take out a space hulk almost single handedly, costing a fucktonne of astartes, without the inquisition telling them they are shitters.
@@conan2096 to be fair space hulks can range from “not that dangerous” to “it’s mere presence will drive any planets within the same system as it mad and god emperor only knows how bad it is inside” if memory serves the hulk you’re referring to was closer to the latter and the attack was less a planned military action and more the Lamenters desperately trying to get rid to the hulk before it destroyed a prominent hive world.
@@somerandomschmuck2547 they were the only people that could get within firing range of it without dying instantly and it still cost them hundreds, and the inquisition was like "i could do better you losers"
The Huron and Abadon comparison near the end of the vid just makes me think eventually Huron’s going to try and take over as champion of chaos just to be killed by Abadon or some nonsense.
That's the likely scenario if they pull an End Times for 40k. Pray this level of stupidity doesn't visit us again.
It really would suck Huron is a way better villain the Failbodon the useless the dude actually knows what the fuck he’s doing
The plot armor is strong with failbadon so probably
@@vlkafenryka788 ya know the plot armor is strong but from my recollection he has yet to win a fight without going into a super coma immediately after
Abaddon is to chaos what Matt Ward era Cato Sicarius was to the imperium
Actually, yeah. I’d so love to read that. Huron kicks Abbadon four ways and sideways off the chaos bandwagon and takes over as war master. That would be something indeed.
It be kinda weird tho because they both look very similar and honestly I don't see how he would do it other then some how ganging up on just him with multiple enemies and even then other then using crazy warp magic or the sword for some reason wanting to be owned by Huron I don't see him getting past his op hax sword because even the emperor couldn't destroy it
@@jeambeam3173 Guilliman decks Abaddon and Hprus steps in. Done. 😎
A chaos heresy. Red Corsairs Vs the Black Legion?
@@jeambeam3173Abaddon was ridiculed by mid-level primarchs; anyone could destroy him.
The real scary thing about the Space Sharks is , despite their powers and effectiveness as a loyalist chapter - they are doing their work with second or third hand equipment. They get most of their stuff through combat spoils, and trading with the Ashen Claws renegade chapter - who also don't have access to newer equipment. Now, they did get a few spoils in the Badab War, most notably in the Sack and Plundering of Sigard. Then later on in actions against the Mantis Warriors, and other lesser known worlds.
I think they now have primaris. As horrifying the thought of primaris space sharks is...
@@johnnyscifi Primaris Space Sharks? Rubicon Tyberous?
Ok, I shat myself. Fuck chaos. I am just gonna go work an agri world now, in peace.
So..basically like Marines Malevolent, but in gray?
Space Sharks are Loyalist Night Lords
@@christiandauz3742 Or Raven Guards, or a hybrid.
Gotta be honest red corsairs and lufgt Huron in all their forms are the most compelling traitor force as they actually make sense in most of their goals with the added benefit of being likable characters
At first I thought by his name Huron would be an edgy bitch who would give Konrad a run for his money, but I'm very happy that I was wrong the dude sounds like a solid commander and an absolute bro in terms of chaos commanders. I am adding Huron and his Red Corsairs to my list of competent chaos warbands.
He's a great Chaos Lord with a powerful warband, but it's funny you mention Curze because one of Huron's best Apothecaries (Variel) betrayed Huron and joined the Night Lords. The Night Lords trilogy is an awesome read.
As a redheaded Australian, I laugh at your presumption that *men don't know about skin care.*
I've learnt many lessons …many _painful burning lessons_ throughout the years.
You would not burn if you stayed under ground like you are supposed to.
Irish are basically wraths. If it isn’t a sense, sun blocking fog, they can only appear under ground.
Destined for Greatness
"Colors of Lordaeron"
Didn't work out for Lordaeron either
Scarlet Crusade are like the Red Corsairs I guess
4:22 I am surprised Nurgle hadn't corrupted the Enslavers into his loving embrace
They'd probably just laugh at him
The enslavers were a threat to the galaxy since long before the chaos gods have even existed.
From what I understand, they are more like fauna in the Warp so they likely just operate on instinct like animals. Not much is know abut them though.
The fact that the Astral Claws outright lied to my sad taxi bois the Lamenters instead of telling the truth about what they really wanted to do casts a dark shadow over this episode for me. Seriously they dragged one of the best SM chapters into a galactic ass whooping and just left them there while they ran
5:30 Azrael: "ASMODAI! NOT ONLY THE ASTRAL CLAWS HAVE FALLEN TO CHAOS, THEY ARE ALSO IN LEAGUE WITH THE FALLEN! MAKE THEM REPENT!"
Asmodai: "REPEEEEEEENNNNNNNTTTTT!"
TTS
Huron:oh you sweet fuckheads. *Puts a call*
Night lord red corsairs:ya rang?
Huron:troll the dark angels, and have fun
Night lords:oh yessssssss!
Later
Asmodai:uhhhhh,why do i hear boss music?
9:23 Huron used to be quite a looker pre-Chaos.
He also used to be better. Compare both his rules pre and post fall.
So were Horus and Fulgrim. Now one of them is dust(if primarch bodies even rot away) and the other one is much worse.
happy to see your channel flourishing and you getting sponsorships bro, you deserve it for sure. you got me into 40k lore when no one else could so thanks for that. keep doing your thing bro, your videos are the best.
Astral Claws went from tragic villains to cartoon baddies real fast.
One of the best scenes in the NL trilogy is when talos and friends used Huron as a glorified shield, him screaming at them to help and the NL just laughing.
To be fair, I would probably do the same in his situation. So would you considering the two of them were meant to be allies.
Shouldn't have stolen their ship.
What's cartoonish about it?
Huron: hey Chaos, if Abbadon is such a great War Master, how come the planet broke before the guard did?
Turning Point Immaterium
This is why I loved Arch's coverage on the logistics in war of Badab, it shows Huron wasn't corrupted by the ruinous powers before his downfall like the Cardinal in Vraks, but rather from the hubris of the current imperium. The Astral Claws are a great reflection on what happens when those inadequacies are put to their extreme.
Slight correction, the Space Sharks just kind of showed up, sent their identification codes, then decided to pound the Mantis Warriors into the dirt.
Huron's lead sorcerer is a Tiger Claw, he has one of the T helmets, and his armours paintjob is the inverse of the Red Corsairs.
Raptors, Mentors, Astral Knights. There's lots of chapters with cool backstories.
Minotaurs and Space Sharks vs Astral claws sounds like the most metal shit ever, I would 100% dump money into a box set or series on that
“You know because we don’t have an ozone layer down under.” The anger in this man’s voice
Slavers are really the least creatively named xenos around
Yeah
It's Enslaver and they are also known as psyrens if memory serves correctly. And they are scary enough that they are put in the same category as Old Ones and War in Heaven Necrons.
Though I'm rusty on the details, I think they live in both the warp and the mundane world simultaneously but have to form a connection with a psyker, transform them into a living warp weirdness generator and bring in more enslavers that then mind slave entire populations. They bad.
@@DaemonetteBait they were last nail in the coffin for the old ones to, if it hasn't been retconned yet, when the burst onto the scene they assaulted the old ones, obliterated a lot of their races and finally cracked their last few strongholds open, sending them running out the galaxy.
I can imagine a debate campaign in the style of TTS between Huron and Abaddon…It would be hilarious!
Huron is such an under appreciated character. I hope he gets some love when the new csm codex comes. I’m really looking forward to the Badab War and Huron video, and good job on this video!
Ooooh ... lookie here*.
*They did. This post was prescient.
He isn't under appreciated.
10:32 Black Templars whose numbers are way more than 1,000 across the galaxy: *innocently whistles*
The Codex is not written by the Emperor. Thus not law for the Templars
I blame the highlords for the astral claws becoming Heretics.
Highlords should be beaten to death with Priests severed limbs!
The High Lords are a pain in the ass.
Glad that Guilliman got rid of those old farts and replaced them with new competent ones.
@@TheWarmachine375 Gman: go home you old shits
Highlords: nah we're gonna start a co- 12 shots from 12 assassins
look at these freaks that are the highlords of terra. the IoM need to replace them.
To be fair, being a nurgle supporter is a pretty good deal when you get eternal happiness
I really think you've touched on a great faction here. After all they went through, it kind of makes you look at the Imperium and say, "And you wonder why they turned to Chaos". Good work bud
I got way to hyped to hear you talk about Talos . After reading his trilogy book I've been a fan of that character
Gotta be honest, Abbadon is like my favorite character of the franchise, but Huron does seem like the best alternative warmaster
I really hope this channel stays around for a long time
Talos Valorian is my favorite chaos space marine.
Huron Bro heart. Reminds me though i think arch did an excellent series on it. I'll have to watch both
Hopefully Huron gets a new model, this way I can repaint my chaos marines from the Black Legion and keep my Abby as a painting project
Awesome video major kill. I used to take huron as an hq choice in 5th-7th edition.
Hope he gets a new model. I still have a metal Huron. Maybe a certain Australian youtuber should produce a model for battle mace 42000
Hopefully we'll get a part 2 where we'll learn more about the Red Corsairs and what they're up to.
I was in hospital for almost a month earlier this year and your videos kept me sane and smiling in one of the worst times of my life. Keep it up, your content is excellent
Ooo Huron would make a great Warmaster! That'd be an awesome twist with the new setting of 40k.
Sounds like a alfa legion blend with ultramarine. Both have stable gene seed and extremely well organized. Scary really. And I do believe alfarius said if they fought conventionally it would be to easy.
I don't think they are a mix of anything, just Dornians, Ultramarines or Unforgiven. A space marine does grow to resemble their primarch in body and mind, but they still have their own personality and shit.
More carcharadon content please .... GW need to start building more on good chapters
Looking forward to more on the astral claws.
Side note and possible idea: Do you think a good way to bring in the Tau to the Warhammer community would be to initiate them into the tragedy of Chaos?
You're the best Warhammer RUclipsr hands down. Keep up the great work mate!
While this is debatable,he's the best one to me because he is funny,can make even sponsor interludes quirky and interesting and doesn't make hour-long videos,which is great for my limited attention span,lol
@@RAD1111able every opinion is debatable, but I'm glad we agree that Majorkill is top tier
Statement is correct
I think every Warhammer Channel has something making it special and worthwhile. Majorkill provides great entertainment and lols in short, boiled down videos. Luetin provides a massive lore deluge in every video and does a great job of setting things into context. Boldemort just keeps putting out videos on the most random parts of the lore and still makes them interesting. Arch may be a questionable figure for some people, yet his style of overly detailed and sometimes goofy videos is still enjoyable.
My personal favorite is probably Oculus Imperia due to his immersive, in universe style of narration.
@@JarlRagnaar most channels have something that makes them unique and appealing. I love Luetin and Boldemorts videos. They got to where they are for a reason. But you can't say ALL of them are good. Just look at One Mind Syndicate. Absolute trash. But every GOOD Warhammer RUclipsr has their niche, and Majorkill nails his (as does Leutin and Boldemort, among others). Majorkill may not be the best for everyone, but he's likely in their top 5 at least, and I personally love his content. (I also love Leutin and Boldemort, but this is a Majorkill channel comment, so I'm obviously gonna focus on him eh)
Legit laughed out loud at the bit about Huron's real name.
Exalted champions of chaos explained by an Australian when?
I've always pronounced it as "Looft." Kind of like loofa, but cut short by (take your pick of wound cauterizing melee weapons). Made a fairly ugly conversion of him back in the day, Their 2nd edition description of a paint scheme was inspired, as it let you paint them as any space marine chapter but with their heraldry defaced and one of their pauldrons painted with the Red Corsairs/Astral Claws symbol, whatever that might have been.. It was a cool idea, with Blackheart collecting the random disaffected Space Marines to his side, you could have a good old Rogue Trader style pirates-in-power-armor army, and screw around with adding spiky bits and tentacles to your ultramarines. Best of all, you could use most of the standard space marine wargear, being more recent traitors.
The Red Corsairs are the best Chaos warband of all time!
I think you should do more videos on chaos warlords, really loved this one!!!👍
Been following you for many years now and I'm looking forward to following for many more years to come!
A video on Chaos Undivided would be great.
The virgin loyalist lamenters vs Chad traitor astral claws
Do an episode on commissar Cain Hero of the Imperium
"Quack" "Quack"
Indeed I listened to Arch Warhammer narrated the Badab War and I sympathize with Huron as he tried to be a good Imperium citizen but the Imperium basically screwed him and the Claws So I don't blame Huron for deciding to turn to Chaos It's a good story if you want to check it out
Keep up the awesome work! Love your take on 40k and the heresy and it’s lore.
Love your work! Would love to hear your take on the siege of terra books
I like how Arch has comissioned so much Badab and Vraks artwork that damn near everyong who does lore videos on Badab and Vraks always use Arch's comissions.
Love your vids man! Keep pumping out all the amazing content! Cheering you on from the USA!
Imperium during the emperor: Getting shit done in the glorious crusade.
Imperium without the emperor: Lol fuk u space marines loyal to the emperor, but don't join Chaos.
Huron should have declared a crusade. Boom.
Dude i love seeing your channel grow. I Watch your Videos since you had like 10k subs and now your channel is huge. Much love from Germany
I do think the Astral Claws are Ultramarine successors and it would be interesting to have an interaction between Huron and Guilliman, with Guilliman low key acknowledging that Huron was right in his complaints and is sad that he fell to Chaos.
Imperium: noooo we don't have the resources even though your on the brink of cleansing the maelstrom once and for all.
Also Imperium: We need to destroy these upstarts at all costs spare no expense! All hands on deck! Open the coffers!
I've been waiting for this one! Cheers!
Gotta say, these guys got a kick ass colour scheme for their marines...
Was just watching a vid with some popcorn and bam. Thanks boyo.
I always subscribe to the notion the astral claws are gathered by Perturabo
Iron warrior gene seed making them incredibly efficient and ruthless
Also always wanting for more recognition and support but also being bastardly stubborn
11:34 Minotaurs: *removes belt menacingly*
Badab war vids would be great mate, keep it up
0:13 Space Marines don't have 200IQ-s "TEchNIcally". They just have elevated and improved brain functions. Sounds good on paper, but it can also just mean "stupid faster". Very fast reflexes, better optic nerves, faster thoughts, more brain capacity and the capability to process sensory and general information vastly faster than regulars. But as seen in 30k, this doesn't necessarily mean they are smarter or more intelligent. Some of them are still just as dumb as a brick, but improved, faster and with a lot more capacity to it.
A SM can see a flies every wind flap in slow motion from a 100m, process that and understand what does that mean. But I think there are also other things that are needed for a growth in intelligence. As some regular humans are very witty and can have hyper complex thoughts and minds, that can make plans, connections and predictions, that seem to be paranoid, far fetched or twisted at best. Yet right and amazing in it's given time. Easily overshooting the average space marine. Those people have remarkable intelligence.
Thank you for attending my daily nitpick, and I'm sorry if it was just a joke on lore. I'm also very tired, sorry if my english is gibberish.
That video you did when you ripped on "One mind syndicate " had me dying my dude!lol new to the channel awesome videos
I REALLY hope they rewrite Abaddon. I’ve always thought he was pretty cool, but so much of the lore I see brought up makes him look hella lame. It’d be great if they made him smarter, more diplomatic + actually powerful, and more of a kingpin kinda guy who is running the show. It’s so much more badass. The way they wrote Huron and the Claws makes me really want them to apply those lessons and good storytelling to abaddon and the black legion, not just lean into powercreep.
Huron needs a new model almost as much as the whole Tyranids do.
Sick video! The Astral Claws are fucking cool. Can't wait to see the Seige video
Why couldnt they be Lunar Wolves successors? I always thought the had alot in common with them.
The MPMD reference killed me.
I would totally like to see more videos on the topic
Looks like MK has something in common with the Necrontyr.... 😂
Happy to be apart of that 2.1 percent
About time Majorkill did a badab war video? Maybe????
My personal headcanon with the Astral Claws has been that they had been one of those secret Mechanicus projects to use Traitor Geneseed, and in the case of the Claws, it used the Sons of Horus
This is a bigger topic, but you should do a video on how lore changed and evolved over time, and what was actually written as stories vs previous lore. stuff like that
The Astral claws stopping a black crusade is a new one.
Love the video! ♥️
Bro I've been sick for 2 days now and I watched so many of your videos that my fking legs are now paralyzed from laying around inhaling 40k knowledge
Keep it up
Huron is genuinely one of the few really likeable chaos characters and also not a mary sue like abbadon
Looking forward to him finally getting a book.
Majorkill should make a huron blackheart mini and red corsairs minis as well
One of my favorites
Didn’t know Blackhearts back story great video!
If not being the Warmaster have Huron Blackheart and the Red Corsairs be in a novel series where it is about them fighting a bunch of popular successor chapters. Let it be about those who don't get that much time in the spot light because their big brothers of the 1st founding are more well known.
Honestly I forgot these guys existed
That chapter masters name had me in tears 😂
1:02 Rich coming from an Australian of all thing. Hey, I think I hear a dingo eating your baby.
As someone who lives in an area that gets cold and dry in the winter moisturizing is key. I get ashy if I don't moisturize in the winter.
You forgot to mention his Astral Parrot Lizard that wispers sweet nothings into his ears...
Majorkill it would be the best time to upload a video about the damocles crusade and the story of the star phantoms and storm wardens
I want to photo shop random object into majorkills hands while he’s talking because he talks with his hands almost none stop lmao I’m pretty sure he’d get a laugh out of it
The skin care shit is amusing af. That ship sailed when puberty turned me into a Jackson Pollock body painting
I can get on board for Huron being elevated to war-master.
