These lenses into the life of average people is in my opinion the best way to show the grim darkness of 40K.
100% agree 🦍
For me I think what says grim dark the most is the grey knights dreadnought that just looks like an angry space mating being carried in a baby carrier strapped to the chest of his robotic and very stiff robot papa. Not only this silliness but the pose is so so so bad. The pose the model ends up with is very similar to when a child wants "uppies" and waits with his arms out and a little up as they await being picked up by their adult. Obviously I'm not even being sarcastic about that grey knight model being the most quintessential grim dark thing in the 40k universe. Anyone who would even suggest I'm not being genuine is a got dang turducken... Thass a duck inside of a chicken inside of a turkey and then cooked.

As someone that only knows warhammer because my neighbor 3D prints models, this is true. I’ve played the Space Marines 3rd person shooter and a few minutes of total war: warhammer, so I know a bit, but this is easy for a newcomer to digest
Humanity doesn't need Astartes but Astartes definitely need humanity. Their egos are so inflated you could achieve orbit.
except some specific chapters tho, not all marines have that ego problem
Depends on the Chapter/individual. Many simply can remember what it's like to be so fragile.
You have to take into account the chances of being chosen to undergo the process of becoming an Astartes, surviving the process and initiations to become a full Battle brother, realising theres a ratio of 1 Astartes for every couple thousand planets and understanding that a handful of you and your brothers can take turn a battle and take a planet in a few days is going to give you a pretty deserved ego boost. Fuck humanity, we are the emperors chosen!
@@lexleonard7183 how are they going to get to the battle if there's no humans or servitors (since they count as human) manning the ship? How are they going to resupply if they don't manufacture their own ammo and gear? How are they going to even know there's battle to miss out on with no astrotelepaths handling comms?
Again, that ego assumes tens of thousands or millions have already done the hard work. Without humanity, Astartes a naked gorillas. When they forgot that, they fell to chaos like any other underhiver.
And without the astartes, humanity would be dead by now
@@UNYEILDING
POV you learn what a chaos word look like when it’s one of the more *calm* type specially for iron warrior standards
Tbh, I don't know much post heresy lore for the Iron Warriors.
The Humans in 30 and 40k are like ants very useful but, they get trodden on all the time but piss enough of of them off and they can have quite a bite too.
Well said
That’s right. And some are like fire ants or jump ants or desert ants or jungle ants…
I love stories of regular people, people with bills to pay and every day worries. Especially in a fantastical world like Warhammer
Tomorrow and Monday
Idk you read any guardsman novels for 40k but you'd like them if that's the case. I like them better than the novels where space marines are the main characters because the guard are real people with actual problems and not Mary Sue problems.
It is worth nothing to mention that the lower decks of an average human warship are a mirocosm, with little to no interference from the upper decks. The black legion (hopefully one day to be) omnibus tells us about tribes of men doing nothing useful to the ship, simply existing, half forgotten, worshipping the ship's machine spirit and serving as a recruitment pool for the traitor astartes, who periodically go down there to hunt a daemon or two, so the wild land down under won't become too wild. The lowest of the lower decks of the Vengeful Spirit are described as nigtmarish half-organic, half-daemonic hellscape, with warp-originated "life" forming walls of flesh, stalactites of human teeth, and so on.
For the young of such tribes, their astartes masters might be a legend, witnessed only by their forefathers or some distant tribe from the other end of their "world", and their lifestyle might be close to that of their prehistorical, hunter-gatherer ancestors from Earth. Except for the ecosystem surrounding them taking energy not from the Sun, but from the residual radiation emanating from the poorly shielded ships' reactor, for the meat they hunt being warp-touched critters, and for the berries they pick up being half-daemonic in nature.
Man...here i was complaining about my life
Gods how is it that the parts of the setting that get focus are always the least interesting? I want more stories told at these levels of the setting
This just makes me imagine that within a World Eater's ship is there's that one barely raging genocidal World Eater guy who's in his rare moment of clarity is like "Listen up fuckheads, if you use any these serfs that we picked up a while back as punching bags, I can guarantee you this ship is going to tumble into an exploding star and you are all going to end up like wet paper plates... Not very blood for the Blood God isn't it? So don't touch them!"
Khorne is probably chilling with his feet up and be like: "Yeah that's true. I'll make that guy a Champion of Chaos."
“We can either have a Little blood & skulls now, or a Lot of blood & skulls later! Which sounds better?”
“Oh… delayed gratification hurts my -tummy- nails. -Cookie- Khorny Monster wants to shed blood now… _Tick_ SKUULLLSSS!!!! OM NOM NOM!!!”
Thats basically lotara sarrin
Bro being a serf/Thrall in a World Eater’s ship is not fun, the 40k Angron the Red Angel makes it clear that not only do the humans have to deal with Berzekers randomly killing them, but they might just randomly get grabbed by a daemon and fed to some machinery.
Makes u wonder how the khornes get their preventative maintenance and shipboard maintenance done. Or maybe the daemons do all that 🤣
Oh yeah and their bolter mags refilled.... Or maybe in khorne csm warbands they just issue more mags than usual.
I've always found the glimpses into serf life amongst the traitors to be some of the most interesting elements of Black Library books, from the Death Guard to the Night Lords there are echoes of imperial life and servitude. The meaninglessness of life in the imperium begs the question of how much worse things could be, the horrors of traitor vessels are extreme, but no more than the cold heartless logic of imperial bureaucrats who direct trillions of lives into furnaces and toxic agriworlds where life expectancies are just as low. The difference being is the cruelty of the traitors seems more senseless and personal, it leaves us scratching our heads at the validity of such sporadic violence and cruelty by those who lack the infinite manpower possessed by the imperium.
Well I mean you get your soul tortured and devoured by demons so
@@dantewilliams2757 nah souls are like rain in the ocean in the warp. its literally called the sea of souls. you don't have sentience or awareness anymore. unless you are a psyker or eldar then your just fucked no matter who your serve.
I like the serf in the night lord series. Septimus or whatever
Body. It seems likely there is no such thing as a soul in the Imperium. Psykers of great power can live on as bodiless minds as can magos by sticking their brains in steel bodies, but for the average person death is the end of the self. Oblivion, born into misery, return to oblivion.
@@Cajaquarius souls are very much a thing that all sentient (and perhaps non sentient) creatures have, this is not the same thing as the mind or self more like just life force. powerful psykers and eldar can have awareness of their soul after death but that just fucking sucks since you get absorbed by daemons like everyone else but your just aware of it and they know that so they may do something messed up to your soul thats not comparable or even analogues to any physical or mental torture you can receive while alive.
There was a part in the GG series where some chaos mercs were too bored not killing anyone, so the transport co-pilot was killed, pilot scalped mid-descent, then had his brain sucked out upon landing. Imagine being some serf and getting mutilated just because someone was bored.
Sure as sure
warhammer just grimderp that way
“Hey barry did you hear-OHMYGO”
I wonder about the motivations of traitor Astartes; If you are a mule, unable to procreate, what is your legacy? What do you get out of life if you cannot pass down your ill gotten gains? It seems like an interesting subject to me.
Honestly, for the most part I would say their goals are just extremely selfish? One might aim to earn a legacy that outlives them through skill and reputation, while another could fully devote themselves to the chaos gods hoping to secure immortality as a champion or ascend to daemonhood. Beyond this - I really think most traitor Astartess simply don't think / plan that far ahead and instead instead prioritise their own survival, pursuing their own personal desires or dedicating themselves to settling age-old grudges
@@dystopianchimp This. I think much of the astartes conversion process leaves these people as incomplete and immature, in ways people wouldn't necessarily always recognize. Yes, they are great warriors, but they have no say in their lives. They have the potential of adulthood and being their own person robbed from them. Chaos offers a half truth about this and living for one's self, but exchanges a degree of freedom in this life for eternal servitude in death. The astartes are taken when young, they have not developed emotionally, they cannot interact with mortals like an adult might, so much of their mindsets whether it be complete deference to authority or extreme selfishness are the behaviours of children who have not yet socially matured. Ultimately they are doomed to be tools, not specifically because of the castration involved, but this is encompassed in the greater concept of having all agency stripped away. Having children is a choice, but a choice they are denied by invasive medical procedures, a choice I would say that is a symbolic representation of all other choices taken from them.
Yes the average human outside of say the Diasporex, lack free will almost entirely by virtue of how impoverished and overworked they are, but there is an extra level of tragedy at such a revered position such as the astartes and the expenses associated and resources allocated, but having little more say than the average factory worker. They live or they die, value is assigned in the name of 'the cause', but who's cause?
Depends, but the butt of it is that the emperor is a false god (something the emperor would agree with himself funnily enough), and they worship the chaos gods and their motives.
The funny thing is that the chaos gods are real in 40k, so their belief is valid. It comes down to the perception of morality. One thing they get right absolutely is that the emperor is not a god, and he would agree with that. The emperor despised religion.
@@dystopianchimpthen you have those in the Black Legion where the civil war never ended, their goal is still the same as it was during the Heresy. Topple the Emperor and claim the Imperium for themselves. This is probably the most far fetched goal of them all, but one that is a far greater purpose for the traitor legions to strive for.
You think like a mortal. They are not bound by standard mortality
Would be interesting to hear about marriage in this universe
Oooh yes mate great idea!
The tau will marry their friends and even get married in groups. I just remembered that.
@@sonic4ever6 Alien beasts
One would think the Traitor Legions would show their mortal serfs greater (if grudging) respect considering what an absolute pain it is for the Traitors to recoup losses of such numbers as opposed to Loyalists who have the Imperium to draw upon. And this may very well be the case with some of the saner warlords.
Traitor legions often just enslave populations. Slaves are replaceable.
Only servants with specialist or authoritative positions (overseers, technical specialists, savants, trusted guards etc) will be treated with more care because they aren’t nearly as replaceable.
Most traitor astartes have God complexes
It would make logical sense but the whole setting is supposed to be cartoonists grim and like the dream of a goth teenager so it wouldn't fit. Everything has to be bad. Wouldn't be 40k if it wasn't.
@@Cajaquarius
Its more interesting for a setting to be consistent than just a giant meme you can’t even take a tiny bit seriously tbh
Grimdark > grimderp
Well it looked like it was the Iron Warriors, and the Iron Warriors are disgusted by weakness, even if that weakness is in the form of people bowing before them as though they were gods.
The iron Warriors probably saw that serf and what he was doing and saw him as garbage, so they treated him as such with no regard because he didn't deserve it in their eyes and he was in the way.
They tend to treat you better if you show you have a backbone, my favorite fan made video essentially ended with a guardsman being spared but her commissar being killed, because the commissar was willing to kneel and pledge himself before the iron warriors, but she stood in defiance knowing the iron warrior not only could kill her but probably would, so the iron warrior killed the commissar for his weakness and spared her, offering her the opportunity to prove herself, as the planetary governor failed her, the imperium failed her, and even her commander failed her.
Really hope your channel pops off. Theres not enough vids that capture the essence of daily life in 40k.
Thanks mate!! More on the way ❤
Cool vid
Working for the Death Guard sounds slightly better than working for the Mechanicus
Serf's of the Alpha Legion have the best life, change my Mind and Hydra Dominatus.
Utter confusion at what might “actually” be going on, so you just keep your head down & follow your orders.
But hey, at least it’s easier to remember names! Everyone is “Lord Alpharius”! :D
@@UGNAvalon Very few chaosbands still use "I am alpharius" joke, other alpha legionaries are pretty hateful to those who still use the shtick. Plus, they don't exactly lie to their serfs, why would they?
@@NicknameDS To keep them guessing, of course! ;D
In seriousness tho, it'd more likely be "deception by omission" & keeping intel on a "compartmentalized"/"need to know" basis. If by some miracle a serf gets captured or leaks info, nothing they say would be useful for any Imperials that might hear of it.
Im new to WH but i like its odd intricate method of power scaling.
The idea that a mere serf can witness a CSM as a living god and bow in total revernce, only to be killed for nothing, gives you a sense of just how feeble characters are. There is nothing special about him, even the fact he isnt special at all.
While simultaneously, this CSM can be cut down by a Solitare in a second, who would just do a jig and wander off, making the CSM, in all his might, allso seem plainly pathetic.
I think but for a moment traitors get to feel the insignificance of the masses when they face a custodes, because to a custodes a space marine is no more then a man would be to a space marine.
It isn't even a fight, a custodes will cut down a space marine without a thought and without effort, and to the traitors that is probably horrifying, seeing something that doesn't care about you and that your best attempts to fight against will matter very little, and once it has killed you it will pay you no more regard.
Meanwhile, a lowly guardsman can face a CSM and potentially _Win!_ “Pity the Guardsman” indeed!
@@UGNAvalon*many lowly guardsmen
Wow I would LOVE this to be a television series. Not a grand depiction of the Horus Heresy but rather a tiny perspective in the life of average people in this universe.
Great video, thank you!
It would be amazing as an animated series
Id also like the HH series, granted it would need the mini-movie series treatment in order to cover the sheer amount of important shit happening.
The death guard treats their crew better than imperial ship masters.
Consult with the marines and ask them anything, they enjoy esoteric conversations.
Dantine cannot look away, even though he wants to. He feels sick again, as if his body has been scraped empty. He does not know what to say. He does not even know what to think.
‘I am a great horror to you,’ Vorx says. That is certainly true.
‘A long time ago,’ Vorx says, ‘I was a horror to myself. The universe is full of horror. You can resist it, and drive yourself into madness. Or you can accept it, and then begin to understand it. I would recommend the latter course, though I accept you must feel quite differently. For now.’
Dantine stares at the monster. For a moment, he is entirely lost for words.‘You... killed them all.’
‘I did not kill you.’
‘Why?’
‘I do not know. Ha. Do you believe that?’ The monster muses. ‘I am a believer in fate. I recognise a conjunction when I see one. For what it is worth, that has kept me alive for longer than most, and I do not intend to turn an opportunity aside.’
‘Why do you do it?’ Dantine can feel himself losing control. He could become angry, if he were not so worn out and nauseous. ‘You were a man once, were you not? You were a human?’
‘I still am, of a kind.’ Vorx is not looking at him. ‘We are all on a spectrum,captain. You are at one end, I am at the other. We are still the same species.’
‘You are mad.’
Vorx chuckles again. ‘I have lost count of how many times that insult has been aimed at me. By your kind, by my kind.’ He is still pacing, as if counting out steps.There are things, sluggish things, that seem to be living in his armour.
‘The accusation is only meaningful if you can give me some suitable account of sanity. I saw the way you lived on that world. I have seen the way Imperial citizens live on a hundred worlds. If you truly believe that this is a sane galaxy, and that we are the aberrations, then I pity you. But then, you have not seen all the alternatives yet. When you do, your mind may change.’
Love the new crop of high quality 40k creators!
the sewage reveal at the start got me good
I think we're maybe being a bit too conservative with our imagination here. For certain Chaos factions it's easy to picture what reality would be like for a serf; think of a Nurgle warband, its members simply become integrated into a living, giant and peristaltic organism serving their masters, similar as it is for Iron Warriors, where humans are nothing more than consumable parts for a greater mechanism. Followers of Tzeentch are a bit trickier to imagine; I think mutation would be extremely common among them and probably even useful, I don't see how a crew would be much recognizable as humans anymore, flapping, wiggling and thrilling as they go about their arcane and culty doings. Finally, serfs under Khornate and Slaaneshi masters would live in societies where their gods respective excesses are practiced and celebrated; on one hand everything gets done by feeling and in a stupor, I don't see fertility rate being an issue, while on the other things are done with extreme ruthlessness and violence, everything a constant battle for survival. I don't think life would continue very normally for serfs under Chaos, it simply doesn't have to. Something would... Seep in from the Warp, and change things at a fundamental level.
Khornate servants might actually have a life not so different from the underbelly of most imperial worlds tbh.
Strict discipline (yes ironically Khornate are known for discipline), rules to follow, tribes and gangs following the strongest amongst them.
Stepping out of line gets you killed. Being at the wrong place at the wrong time gets you killed. Being part of an outcast clan gets you killed.
But otherwise you might live a relatively normal life
You ever seen that Key and Peele skit where they’re lampooning LMFAO and it’s the “Party don’t stop cause it keeps on going” and they literally cannot escape the party? That’s an EC serf experience.
“It’s been three centuries and the party’s still going.”
What was the slaves error that the Astartes felt the need to personally go down to the hab zone and kill him?
He looked at a chaos Space Marine.
@@inthefade Or he was just in the way of where the astartes needed to go..
He was in the way
@@dystopianchimp This is why they end up using Daemonculaba's while more sensible legions farm cults.
He dare to look up the iron warrior
17:10 "Everywhere I look it's, 'Pepe Sylvia, Pepe Sylvia!' WHO IS PEPE SYLVIA?"
Ok but what did the serf in the beginning even do? Were the iron warriors just bored or some shit? Was it because he showed too much deference?

Thought provoking and something that hasn't really been explored.
Thanks mate ❤ Much appreciated
Excellent video man 10/10 I loved that bit at the start pulled me right in!
If I had to serve a traitor legion, I'm choosing Emperor's Children.

really good video, wouldnt wanna be that dude gettting looked down on
I'd have thought it depends on which God your masters worship? Nurgle- slime pit stuff. Tzeentch- strange mind games. Khorne- mindless violence. Slaanesh? Well, let us not go there, because it's 18R rated.

It's just as possible that the IW merely slapped the guy out of the way but he died easilly because he's frail and got slapped by an IW. The was no intention specified so I think it's almost just as dark that the space marine just had zero regard either way and his death was simply inopportune.
Great work mate! Love 40k content from the peon's point of view.
It's such a coincidence I find this today!
So I been listening to the audiobook of Soul Hunter (the first of the Talos/Night Lords triology) and was just this bit about how the slaves that attend to the astartes are looked at like celebs when they go into the slave levels of the ships. And how they have these underground blackmarkets to get power and shit. It also mentioned how the Night Lords sometimes come down to hunt them but if they have a protection coin, they good.
It must be soooo crazy to be so low on the pole and know that those above you are objectively just better than you!
Did I just discovered feminism right there?🤔
Top tier book series!! I drew alot of information for this vid from those very books
@@dystopianchimp I finally finished the first book!
Have you watched video by Burial Goods about Talos disciplining his serfs? It's really great and feels like the opposing POV to what we get here.

Honestly this is just modern humanity taken to the extreme. This is why i always thank those who have given service. Whether its an IT worker, a food service worker, an accountant, laborer, etc. Its the masses thay keep the world running, while those above always seem to reap the rewards from said masses without doing the work themselves.

heresy
The Emperor was wise making the Astartes sterile, however he should have went further by NOT idolizing them to the point of demi-godhood in order for them to identify with the common man.
Its like being a serviter,except your in controll of your body/mind still,
and the warp randomlly changes your body or brain or both,
and chaos people could randomlly change your body or mind or both,
or they do something thats =< more what the inperium does to "criminalls" with drugs and robots/evesor assasin 1=the 1 thats a night lord human,but they say their a assasin.
carnage from spider man does not act like a assasin and i dont think they know what the focus fire words thing means...
Alot of these menial tasks can be often automated.
I can see how the men of iron destabilized civilization so easily, that niche of disconnection allowed their organization against their superiors.
However the automation of these systems need not be so independent, make it like a beast, like machine spirits, which are used.
Automated systems cost money and resources to develop, build, and implement. Flesh is a cheap, renewable resource in the 40K galaxy.
The same also applies, ironically on Terra in M3 (i.e. in the real world). Why do we have robots that can perform neurosurgery, but still rely on migrant labour to pick grapes and strawberries? Surely a living person's brain tissue is more delicate than even an over-ripe fruit?
It's because there's no shortage of coolies willing and desperate enough to pick crops for hours under the hot sun whilst getting sprayed with pesticides. And it's a lot cheaper to hire these migrant coolies than to develop and field robots to do the same job, at least in the short term.
Bureaucracy
So they got it better than the loyal citizens of the emperim then?
6:50 plot twist that isnt a plot twist=theyre gunna die.

So about as bad as it is for imperial serfs
Alpha legion are the true protagonists of Humanity.
Is there any lore on why Humans in 40k still have a decent birth rate? Given the grim darkness and lack of hope for the average, it makes it hard for me to think of why anyone would want to have children.
Might just have to look into this for a future vid
3rd world countries irl have higher birth rates
@@comebackqing8452There's a very big difference between life in a barely developed jungle country with poverty stricken village life compared to life in the grey, sterile cities with gray Chinese single-room two family apartments, toxins everywhere, etc.
But in truth, most of the birthrates are a matter of mentality.
Othee than DG Renegade Guard have more opportunities to advance the interest of True Warriors And themselves...As well as enjoying some egalitarian meritocracy perhaps. Loyalist Imperial Guard sukolt serve the whims of capriciousness, opportunistic swof described nobility. Never mire rhan an expendabke losathed tgesll 😅
It could be worse this is Warhammer 40k after all
Why did the worker get killed?
He was black
Because he was in their way or just because they could, who knows
@@2x477 no, the Iron Warriors are just really racist towards black people specifically
Why not? They don't need to have a reason
@@ozgurruh2535 This is the reason. Maybe the Iron Warrior was bored; or maybe he was just having a bad day. Or maybe he had been keeping his eye on this serf, this Flesh who was getting a bit too big for his breeches by having the gall to think that he actually had some measure of the Iron within. He was stupid and arrogant enough to believe that the Iron Warriors valued _him_ any more than you'd value a particular shell in your boltgun's magazine.
The serf forgot that he was just an expendable resource, not a person in the eyes of the Iron Warriors, and he paid the price for that mistake. The serfs on Traitor Legion vessels who survive the longest tend to fall into one of two categories:
A) Those who are indispensable to the functioning of the ship and/or their master's goals. This will typically include personnel such as Navigators, Tech-Priests, and other specialists with skills or abilities that are not easily transferred or trained, and whose roles the Astartes themselves cannot easily fill. Yes, a Chaos Sorcerer can guide a ship through the Warp, and Techmarines do have training from the Mechanicus, but neither is a 100% effective substitute for an actual Navigator or a skilled Tech-Priest, respectively.
B) Those who avoid their dread masters' notice.
In the case of the serf in the opening vignette, he was _not_ irreplaceable, as his position was easily filled by the next serf in the shift rotation. And he attracted the attention of the Iron Warriors.
so how is this any different to real life.
Cry harder
Similar situations have happened, and sadly do happen in real life. Probably not in _your_ life, though, since if you were living under similar conditions, you wouldn't be able to post your comment since Internet access generally isn't a privilege afforded to the inmates of concentration or forced labour camps.
