    As an outsider to the 40 K universe... I have to formulate My insight that you are a truly gifted narrator who’s adept for storytelling is one of the best and most effective I’ve ever experienced (coming from an anthropologist witnessing multitudes of cultures recite their stories)...You always find a way to bring an original perspective taking us down unexpected narrative pathways as you simply yes eloquently speak of the Warhammer universe as we walk through it with you. Your perceptions of this galaxy whose menagerie of complicated yet intriguing habitants make The ‘grim darkness’ feel palpable. Yet such a unique facet it’s not what put you on a different level of other Warhammer narrators, it’s The fact that you’re narrative monologues are NEVER formulaic nor predictable nor a simple recitation pre-written Lore! You my man, are gifted. The natural predispositions of your voice and cadence emanated through the aperture of a passion for the grim dark.... has manifested a pure intuitive genius for your craft!

    I find myself back here once again good sir Baldermort. I have had myself what I would call the longest second of my life, and that was seeing my dad in the hospital, hearing there was no brain activity and no chance of recovery save for a miracle. No miracle came, and it was seven days before my birthday. I miss him every day.
    I keep coming back to 40k, and your videos, because it contains stories of struggling against insurmountable odds without hope. I really resonate with that. I've left comments on a few of your videos, and I will continue to do so, but I want to thank you for being the catalyst that got me into the lore. Strange as it is, it's been those stories of perseverance that helped me step up and do what needed to be done in the days following his passing. It wasn't easy, but falling apart wasnt an option.
    I've thoroughly enjoyed reading the 40k books. And oddly enough, I have enjoyed Rogal Dorne, and Sigismund. I have a fascination with Viking mythology, and have a few trinkets with runes on them (rule of cool). One ring has the inscription "May you not lack in strength". It was a surreal moment when I read The Solar War and read Sigismund say before a battle "May my strength be equal to this moment." I read that page the day of my dad's passing, before I went to bed in the morning after night shift.
    You may never read this, but I hope you know that you have brought me stories that I have found important lessons in. I'll leave you with the final words I gave my father before saying goodbye
    "It was enough."
    You've brought me stories, and made videos with such passion and zeal, and it has made a difference in my life.
    Thank you good sir Baldermort.

    Your telling of Rogal's origins is an absolute joy to listen to. You gotta hand it to GW for building such a deep character, a stoic outside with such emotion and sentimentality underneath. It's very cool to see how you were able to show how Gulliman could be so jealous of Rogal. Rogal was everything Gulliman wanted to be and from my understanding Gulliman felt better than or superior to his brother Rogal. You can see Gulliman's jealousy in Rogal's Crusade record, how pleased their father was with Rogal's Empire, the Emperor keeping Rogal close instead of Gulliman, Rogal gifting the Phalanx to the Emperor where Gulliman had no such gift, Rogal being chosen as the Praetorian of Terra and then later Warmaster of the Loyalists, and Rogal being the one to last see their father. It's cool to see how Gulliman kept that jealousy underneath until he couldn't take it anymore and decided to abdicate Rogal in the name of his own pride. I'm certain GW doesnt see Gulliman this way but I find it very cool that this story is there if you see things a certain way.

They encapsulate the essence of what W4OK is all about, not the battles ,not war but the heart of it. Its emotions.

      Arch Gets a bunch of lore wrong in almost every video. Not to mention his highly arrogant approach to his content LOADING them HEAVY with his opinion. He's almost fighting his viewer base in an "No I'm right!" fashion =/ He's deeply in "dunning krugger effect" territory". Highly frustrating to watch his videos...
      Leutin gets is a lot more accurate with the lore. Absolving him from some gripes. He too however... Is thickly slabbing on his opinions in videos... Although in an less adversarial manner. Again. Highly frustrating. Are they here to teach us about the lore or impart their opinions...
      Baldemort. You my man have a far more storytelling approach to this. Bringing the lore far more "as read by a librarian". It has your interpretation entwined in it. But it's far more about the nuances/emotions of the lore. Not forcing your opinion onto the reader but merely hinting at how you see it. Leaving breathing room for the listener to make their own interpretation.
      Keep it up! You rock!

      Rogue4Buttons it would be deeply inappropriate for me to comment on your evaluation of Arch or Luetin. I hope you see I am not disagreeing with you, just playing it neutral as I tend to do. I never want to sour anyone to any other channel.
      But about myself / thank you. A lot. I try to show when it’s an opinion or dramatic licence by saying ‘we’re going off script’ indicating it is just my take.
      I never want to thrust my view down anyone’s throat about warhammer. The only exception is a call to enjoy it and leave the stress away from it. It’s our hobby our escape!
      Anything else? Politics, economics, etc? I’m not trained for that! Entertainers should stick to entertaining, is my view. If I want an opinion on anything ‘real life’ I look up a bunch of differing experts. See what they got.
      I will never ever understand why anyone would ask a poet about plumbing or an actor about politics. They know just about squat is my view. Their view, like my view, is no better than anyone else’s.
      But it’s just my take on things. I’m regularly wrong. Regularly.
      If you EVER catch me slipping from this line, if you EVER see me getting full of myself, burst that balloon. Remind me of this, the Baldomatic oath. Just lore and stories. Maybe some hobby stuff. Nothing ever more. Ever.

      Now - Sarturnine (new book changes a lot) has changed much. I did not get a hardback so have to wait for the sort back release. I am honestly a bit shaken by the changes - they were seismic. So may have to wait for a copy and read it and absorb it before I do another Primarch. My entire Emperor origin and history run has been shattered by that one book, which alters 33 years of existing lore. So, you can see why I may be a little gunshy at this present momebnt. I plotted out about 12 hour long episodes for the Emperor. I am now terrified of what they are doing, so am waiting a little bit more. :( I was about to begin Fulgrim you see. One loyalist then one traitor. But GW's changes are making it tough. sorry. :(

    Escapism.. yes , and more. As grimdark and over-the-top as 40k may seem, there´s many ideas in there which, upon closer inspection are quite deep, like the warp for instance: It could be seen as an analogy for the collective unconscious of humanity, an immaterial reality consisting of the hidden emotions and desires of mankind, breaking into conscious reality in times of crisis and great sufffering.
    I never got into the game itself (I enjoyed the few good videogames like Dawn of war though...) but I love the setting and the lore in it´s grimdark and epic nature. I´m really thankful passionate people like you are creating these carefully put together and supremely narrated videos, its a treat for us lore-heads.
