There were a LOT of funny moments in the Night Lords Omnibus. My personal favorite favorite has to when First Claw was cutting their way through an Imperial ship and Talos said what part of the ship they were on and Xarl snatched up an Imperial to ask him if he was only to get shot in the face.
Hands down one of the funniest for me was when Konrad was going on this long monolog to Vulcan about how he deactivated all the fancy stuff in Vulcan's hammer and he will never escape. Vulcan looks at Konrad and say "but brother you are forgetting one thing, it is also a hammer" then full strength bonks Konrad on the head with it
4:22 my favorite moment in the Cain novels is when he avoids an assassin's bullet because he's admiring Colonel Kasteen's butt as she's walking up the stairs. And after the attack was sorted out, people ask him what gave him the foresight to stop and he's gotta think of something that doesn't make him sound like a creep.
My favourite moment is from the Horus heresy book "Angel exterminatus" when an emperor's children noise marine is killed by Ignatius Numen, an iron hands battle brother who happened to be completely deaf, hence the screeching of the EC captain had no effect. Numen then proceeded to shoot the EC captain in the face before simply yelling "What?"
He forgot to mention that Trazyn also made the finger gun gesture at Orikan while the two were feuding. I repeat, a 60 million year old necron lord shooting someone with an imaginary finger gun is CANON.
Not evening mentioning what Trazyn did with the Bell of Saint Gerstahl! He stole it from an imperial world (as it was considered a Holy Imperial Relic) and stored it in his Tomb World vaults - just before the 13th Black Crusade it starting chiming extremely loudly and broke a bunch of his other artefacts in his vaults. In a moment of genius he tossed it into the webway in order to inconvenience the Eldar as much as it did him.
Guardsman: This… this ptsd bro… it’s totally debilitating. Tech priest: Debilitating you say? Guardsman: yeah, my mind, it’s nearly useless. I wish I could forget the whole thing. Tech priest: 😃😃😃
One of my favorite moments I when Jaghatai Khan roasted Fulgrim. “I have heard from my sources on Mars, that you do very strange things with your ships, Jaghatai.” “I hear that you do very strange things to your Warriors.”
My favourite Fulgrim moment is when he was talking shit to Perturabo, Perty tells him to come closer, closer, and closer. And of course Fulgrim was talking shit. Right up and till he had his Head smashed into a Warhound Titan Mini (Yes, like an actual Mini that we can get, 30cm in length)
Best naming convention is with the Dark Angels. Lionel "the Lion" Johnsons most notable traits is Pride (because of lions). Dark Angel is the name of a famous poem by the real world Lionel Johnson, where he basically comes out as a homosexual. And "The Rock" is the the name of a homosexual night club near GW headquarters, which also explains why Emps from TTS thought The Lion was working on opening a gay bar.
My favorite is always this exchange between Fulgrim and Horus "Now you flatter me, hoping my ego will coerce me into obeying your orders." "Is it working? "Yes."
Also, during the eponymous novel, when Fulgrim made an elaborate play to explain to everyone what the Angel Exterminatus was, only for Perty to tell him "Shut the fuck up and get along with it." Fulgrim turned around to Perturabo and was litterally glaring daggers at being cut in his monologue and having to start it all over again! 😂
To me the funniest moment is, when Leman Russ tries to throw the Spear of the Emporer to another Moon, because he think´s he can. In real he was wasted AF, and his First Company had to search the Spear for two Months.
@Anonymous Wolf´s Honour, Space Wolf Novel written by Lee Lightner. Ragnar Blackmane meets the Captain of the 13th Company, and he tell´s him this Story
Reminds me of the (real life, no joke) incident of the Australian cruiser HMAS Sydney attempting to shoot down the planet venus because the crew thought it was an Italian aircraft.
@@Seraphus87 there's a saying in Ukrainian military that you are not a true soldier until you try to shoot the International Space Station outta the sky at night, confusing it with an enemy drone.
My favorite is when a space marine apothecary performed an emergency c-section on a guardswoman and then immediately panicked as he had no idea how to deal with babies. And then when another guardsman asked what gender the baby was the space marine threw it at another space marine asking him to check
*The mechanicum are funny though: Their perception of what a monkey is!* But then, that would have been a deviation from the historical ledgers in his possession, which clearly described just what a monkey had and had not been, back when there were such things on Terra. He’d argued with several scholars - Terran, Martian and out-system alike - regarding the veracity of those archives. It seemed everyone had their own viewpoint, backed up by their own research, on just what monkeys had actually been. A particularly misguided rival of Arkhan’s had insisted the creatures could hang from trees by their tails, which was patently nonsense. Any serious scholar could see the beast’s tail was designed as a lash and a puncturing weapon to deliver venom.
My Favorite funny moment is when two Necron Lords talk about obsessions, one say "A Necron need at least an obsession to keep his sanity" and the other Necron say "Then Trazyn of Nihilakh is the sanest of us all" edit: The necron is Menteb the Kryptech and the other necron is Djezaris of Ithaka
Another Trazyn/Orikan moment was when the two teamed up to fight some orcs. The orcs boarded Orikan’s ship, and both Necrons couldn’t figure out if orcs needed to breathe.
One of the best parts about that is that the Orks were moving around space and boarding the ships were Stormboyz that just had rockets tied to their backs. Upon seeing that one of these rockets was an imperial predator missile, Trazyn didn’t want to take any chances and just trapped them in one of his pokeballs. In a later battle, Trazyn releases the Orks and the one with the predator missile immediately flies in and detonates, causing major damage to the enemy.
Speaking of Cain, I think it was one of his books, a book about the Cadians or about papa smurf where they found an old man librarian and a sister of battle seemingly coming out of one of their apartments a little.. Messy. And their response was just: Good going for him
Favorite part for caiphas cain will always bez for me: " Colonel karstein demandes silence and the beggining of the meting. Then 30 seconds latter, she demanded it again. Colonel karteins demanded silence, again. Major broklaw shoot his bolter up to the celing. Colonel karstein needed no more to ask for silence"
Speaking of Orks and dumb shieet: the story of Tuska Denonkilla, who got his ship invaded by Chaos Demons, while travelling through the Warp and loved it so much that he invaded the Eye of Terror, so that he can fight more Demons, is just hilarious.
And when he died killing a powerful demon in the process Khorne made him and his bois his champions and they fight and ressurect regularly in his part of warp
Orks are just funny in general, from meks joining burna boy teams to ensure they don't set their fellow orks on fire so they can do the burny dance, to Old Zogwart, who has the habit of turning his enemies into squigs.
the funniest fact about cain imo. Is the fact that he has been reported dead so many times yet turned up alive. that he is still registered on active duty even after being buried with full military honors.
Yeah the bureaucrats in the Imperium got so fucking tired having to update his file from KIA, to on active duty to KIA several times over that they just gave up. Permanently putting his status in "On active duty" even after he was buried in the ground. Still thinking that he was gonna pop up in some bar somewhere alive.
The most hilarious thing I found in WH40k is that Imotekh the Stormlord, the greatest tactician the galaxy has ever seen for millions of years is absolutely flabbergasted at how illogical Orks are and can never achieve complete victory over them.
I mean. It’s a decent prank but it’s not as lolworthy as The Changeling’s balls to the walls shenanigans. This is a mere daemon who shits and giggles at Gods.
My favorite moment of Trazyn was when the bell of eternity tolled 13 times, ruined like half his collection, and so he opened up a portal in the Webway and then just yeeted the bell into it 🤣
The idea of the changeling breaking into Khorne's realm just to steal a big knife from him and then cut slaanesh's hair to start a war is... Absolutely hilarious.
Was hoping you’d mention when Cain’s jealous/zealous schola “friend” tried to arrest him during a raid on some cultists. But he looked like such a badass to the guys Tallarn guardsmen that they started a sub cult to Cain as an Avatar of the emperors will.
And Cain called the asshole Commissar out to a duel for insulting Colonel Kasteen, which the guy was... less that eager to accept, since the next two things he saw Cain use his sword on were a Khorne Berzerker and a Daemon Princess... Oh and the asshole got Court Marshalled and almost shot, for treason, heresy and obstruction of duty, for trying to get Cain shot
“Then the prophet spake: saying “Frak this, for my faith is a shield proof against your blandishments”. -Alem Mahat, The Book Of Cain, Chapter IV, Verse XXI
A sub cult that is sanctioned by the Ecclesiarchy even. "That Cain guy? A real propper lad that one, let's make him a religious icon as well." - The Ecclesiarchy
*Trazyn gets to Orikan’s place *drops off his Custodies Trazyn: “I’ll be back to pick him at at 5. Don’t let him stay up too late, or he’ll get cranky”
A coup that Trazyn himself had started hundreds of years earlier by releasing a Genestealer Primarch onto the planet as a practical joke on Orikan. That entire book was full of hilarious moments.
When I heard Night Lords Omnibus I was expecting to see the moment when Xarl, instead of trusting Talos, picks a guy up by the hair to check his uniform and then asks if he's from the Gunnery Deck, only his words burst though his vox speaker so loud that he deafened the man he was questioning, the man then draws his gun and Shoots Xarl in the head just for the slug to ricochet off Xarl's helm and dome himself. (Soul Hunter, page 96 I believe)
HOLY SHIT THE SEXY AUSTRALIAN MAN HIMSELF PINNED MY COMMENT! Love your content dude, it's really nice to have a RUclips who does shorter, entertaining and engaging 40k lore content that gets across all the needed information while still fluffing it up a bit as most others have longer form videos that are harder to get through. Keep it up dude, you're doing the Emperor's work.
@@S3verusMyG Probably shouldn't have called him sexy 4 words on, aye. Ah well, I'll always know in my heart I had a comment pinned by the man himself, truly I have peaked.
My favorite is where there was this one world eater that wanted to get a skull from every species in the entire galaxy and ran head long into a tyranid hive fleet to collect their skulls after he found out about them.
3:32 Ciaphas Cain may think himself as a loser but he already is a winner with his hot Inquisitor girlfriend looking out for him, his best buddy blank Jurgen who gives him good cup of tanna and a well deserved reputation as HERO OF THE IMPERIUM that he earned and kept it well for years.
The only man to be buried with full military honors and yet still listed as on active duty. The administorum got so tired of changing him from Killed in Action back to Active service so damn often that they just made it impossible to take him off Active Service. If that gives any clue to how many near death experiences he's actually survived. There was the time his starship exploded, the time he teleported to a Necron ship to escape a Tomb World, the time he got lost in a space hulk, the time cultists overran his school, the time he went to a slanneshi brothel, the time a ceiling collapsed subsequently trapping him with a fusion reactor and a very large bomb...
@@benjaminnorris5540 And a time he was captured by a Succubus and somehow manage to kill her and escaped (Succubus can easily kill Eldars because their final test is kill one Farsight or someone with equal rank of Farsight)
while talking about Cain, I kinda thought you might mention "Jinxie" Penlan. the soldier with a horrible string of bad luck, but is kept in her squad as a "good luck charm" because any misfortune seems to be centered on HER alone. Thus keeping the rest of them relatively safe.
@@jameshewitt4706 Good point. Poor Qrow would wish his bad luck only happen on him than on his friends and loved ones which was a source of his grief and drinking problem in RWBY.
@@rexlumontad5644 furthermore her squad seems to see her as their GOOD luck charm, since she basically seems to just kinda absorb any bad luck or misfortune into herself, thus keeping THEM kinda safe. Plus the 3 times the whole situation has actually ended up working out for her in the long run. To my knowledge, anyway.
I remember in Helsreach, Grimauldus asked one of the surviving Imperial Guardsmen how he faired after the battle, and the Guardsmen said “I had a headache, but it’s gone now.” And Grimauldus replied with “That makes me smile.” Hands down one of the funniest and slightly heartwarming moment in 40K in my opinion.
Honestly that seems pretty accurate to what a shell-shocked, near-dead tired guardsman just enjoying the knowledge he made it through hell alive would say.
That one time Sevatar roasted his daddy Night Haunter: “There was no other way.” Sev: “No? What other ways did you try?” Night Haunter: “Sevatar…” Sev: “Answer me, father. What politics of peace did you teach? What scientific and social illumination did you bring to this society? In your quest for a human utopia, what other ways did you try beyond eating the flesh of stray dogs and skinning people alive?” Night Haunter: “It. Was. The. Only. Way.” Sev: “The only way to do what? The only way to bring a population to heel? How then did the other primarchs manage it? How has world upon world managed it, without resorting to butchering children and broadcasting their screams across the planetary vox-net?”
Given we're talking about Sev, who grew up on Nostromo, I assume 'roasted his father' just meant... well... roasting his (birth)father. Which would be pretty funny, as everything Sev does is comedy gold.
Sevatar truly does have balls of steel. Imagine *knowing exactly* what he does to people, knowing he very well could do it to you too and talkikg shit about it to his face anyway. The man gives no fucks.
Funniest moment for me is in the third Horus Heresy book, when Eidolon acts like he's hot shit in a meeting right before Istvaan III and gets absolutely fucking roasted by Horus and Angron
@@DCapybara It was a while ago, so I don't remember specifics, but it's when they're going over the plans for Istvaan III. Horus, Angron and Mortarion are there, but Fulgrim is too busy trying to convince Ferrus Manus to turn traitor, so he sends Eidolon as a representative. If I remember correctly, Angron mentions part of the plan, Eidolon tries to condescendingly explain that it sucks, Horus points out that Eidolon is a pompous dipshit who doesn't have any right to talk down to a primarch, and then he and Angron take turns flaming Eidolon's ass for like an entire page. It's pretty great.
Lorgar told a bunch of custodes, that he wouldn't even piss on them if they were on fire (First Heretic) Sulla sees Jurgen and thinks he got attacked by the necrons, but he didn't that's just how he always looks (caves of ice) In Malleus Eisenhorn goes to an auction where chaos cultists attend, he spends the entire time insulting the cultists
One moment that made me laught was when a Tau comander was chased by a pissed off space marine in a museum and during a moment when he was cornered and in full panic mode he grabed a nearby tour guide drone and threw it at the head of the SM with all of his strength , however moments before it made contract with his head it abruptly stopped itself and then flew back at him and asked him "how may I assist you?"
Honestly it would probably have fallen out of use by then so it's kind of clever imo... ... If we ignore the terrible opsec of the password being such an easily discernable and easy to replicate knock
I'd say that Jörgen is THE funny moment of the Kayn books. Or the moment when an ork nob breaks the forth wall in the "infinite and the divine" by "being" the narrator
I think the funniest bit is Abaddon the Despoiler declared Horus to be weak for not being able to defeat the whole Imperium in less then a decade and then he failed to make it past the first checkpoint in ten thousand years.
My favorite funny moment is when Trazyn finds out he accidentally started a gene stealer cult, causing an exterminatus of a planet, just to mess with Orikan.
My favorite hilarious moment will probably always be when Trazyn the Infinite is inspecting the Ork rocket/ship in his gallery after Orikan unfreezes them. He’s expecting a big bank of buttons and dials, a yoke for steering, etc. Instead, there’s just 2 buttons that say “Stop,” and “Go.”
One of my favorite moments is in the book fifteen hours where you briefly meet a nagivation peon who spends 17 hours a day transcribing navigation coordinates and he reads back a long string of numbers then pauses and goes "wait was that a 7 or a 6? Oh well it probably doesnt matter" and accidently causes the worst drop blunder of the book causing a whole regiment to get nearly wiped out on their first mission when they were supposed to land somewhere safe and secure.
The name jokes always made me laugh. The smartest ork is called orkimedes after greek archimedes and in fantasy there is a faction of orks that rose up from dark elf slavery and their leader is called krikzuz. In real life Crixus was one of Spartacus's friends
Navigator girl: I'm sorry about your brother, he's a good guy Talos: my brother Zaro The heretic, the traitor, the murderer is a good guy?..*proceed to laughing until crying*
When I learned German it turned out Digga is an existing word. It means something along the lines of friend or buddy. Started as a regional dialect and has absolutely no connections to any English words that may sound (cough) similar. I’ve heard some German tourists were actually assaulted for it in the US because tolerance for other cultures/languages is apparently not a thing anymore...
When I heard Digga I assumed that Digganobs were a type of Dwarf/Ork hybrid that liked to mine a lot because it sounds like dig-er, as in like a big mining digger.
@@Rogue.Rainbow That's kinda the point (just human instead of dwarf). Digga is just 'Digger' Orkified. In the Gorkamorka fluff the Diggas were the descendents of the original human population of the world who got buried underground when the Ork Hulk first landed. They lived in underground tunnels for years, generally degrading as a society, so when they reached the surface they didn't have much cultural identity of their own, so they assimilated Ork 'kulture' as a replacement.
In one of the Night Lords omnibus books Talos is either captured or wounded and his enemy is giving him this giant monologue. Talos allows him to finish then says "imagine...". So the other guy expecting a giant monologue in return is interested and asks, "imagine what?" Then Talos embarrasses this guy responding, "imagine how little I care." I laughed a lot reading that but it was a few years ago so my memory might not be 100% accurate.
In Blood Reaver, the first claw squad are assaulting an enemy position and are just hiding behind the Red Corsair terminators as they march forward. The Red Corsairs are shouting abuse at them and calling them cowards while the Night Lords are just laughing at them while they use them as moving cover.
The funniest moment for me was when the Night Lords were taking care of Curze while he was in a deep coma after fighting the Lion, then the remaining 4 captains, including Sevatar, were discussing the future of the Legion. Sevatar just said "meh, whatever", left the room and w his weapon in the table, meanwhile one of the captains was already running away from there because he knew that was a teleport beacon for the Atramentar. While the other 2 were mowed down by said terminators that teleported in, the captain who ran away just took a glancing hit and lost his balance, falling near the feet of Sevatar who was smiling in amusement, asking if the remaining captain has changed his mind.
@Majorkill here is another good one from Cain. In Cain's Last Stand. One of Cain's cadets got converted to chaos by chaos warlord Varren (who happened to be powerful psiker). In Yurgen's nullification field he regained control of his actions and told Cain important intel about enemy leader. And before killing himself his last word to Cain was : "Kick his ass for me!" And Cain did! In duel Cain vs Varren Cain made an epic kick in Varren's ass throwing him of the tall building and killing him. And the best part - there is a pict-recording of this duel.
That was pretty grimdark at the same time. The cadet himself was like a young Cain. If only the cadet had of had his own odoriferous but indefatigable aid.
Cain gives the cadet his own commissar sash before the young man takes his own life to stop the chaos psyker regaining control over him. And then when Cain later kicks the warlord off the dam, his last words to them are "Commissar Donal sends his regards."
My favourite was when those guardsmen ran out of ammo, so yelled "bang!" at the attacking orks, who then believed they'd been shot and died, as whatever an ork believes comes true
During the Drop Site Massacre, when the Word Bearers start complaining to the Iron Warriors about all the shot down ships crashing into their ranks, and the Iron Warriors respond with, and I am paraphrasing here: "Have faith, Word Bearer. LOL. LMAO".
Trazyn: Don't you want to live and continue to fight? Creed: No, I intended to fight till the end and die alongside my men. To continue the fight while... Trazyn: *yawn* Right... yeah... uh ... ... *POKEBALL GO*
@@adheeshsingh2014 Eisenhorn recieved a message from the local Lord Inquisitor, stating he would be receiving another younger inquisitor to mentor. Said inquisitor then sent his own message, describing at great length just how thrilled he was to be working with him, as well as basically fanboying over him in incredibly flowery language for pages. Eisenhorn then replied, and I quote: "My lord, what foetid corner of the Imperium breeds these fawning idiots? Now you really owe me. G.E."
It should also be noted that while Cain himself thought that Sulla was reckless and annoying, she actually saw him as a kind and supporting mentor figure, and even declared that many of her tactics were inspired by him, often wondering "what would cain do". Pleas, make video about commissar Cain?
Couple for me: - In Saturnine Abaddon muting Angron over the Vengeful Spirit's communications because he's sick of his ranting, then proceeding to call Angron and Fulgrim "whores" to their faces - the scene in Gaunt's Ghosts where Gaunt's drunk Commissar mate yells out "burn in hell, you shit-eating dogs!" to the Bluebloods trying to kill them, then they proceed to lead them into a huge Ghost ambush via car chase
It wasn't even an ambush done by the ghosts - Gaunt, Milo and the other commissar just tried to get away and happened to run into the ghosts, who were busy unloading a truck full of illegal/black market stuff like alcohol and porn that Rawne, Corbec and Feygor had stolen from a local crime boss.
I recall one funny moment from the Night Lords novels, I think the last one, when they see a loyalist Space Marine champion walking down the corridor towards them, dripping with impressive wargear, and one of them just laughs and basically says ''We are so dead'' .
For me a funny moment in the Black Dragons book is when they are saving some slaves on a ship held by Dark Eldar, and when they see the Black Dragons they were sure they would kill them, then Volos, the BD Captain was like "perhaps they would be calmer if we were Ultramarines" lol.
One of the moments I think is hilarious is when a group of space marines find a dreadnought ( pretty sure it was chyron from the lamentors / deathwatch ) after he jumped out of a pile of Xenos corpses, in which he was hiding to ambush the xenos if more came.
Trazyn once roasted a guy over when the guy asked if he is going to destroy his planet,Trazyn shown him a list of all ecological disasters his planet will inevitabily suffer due to humanity being pollution-loving idiots and then he asked "do you really need the help?"
Trazyn steals the show but orokin is pretty hilarious too. I like the he uses chronomancy to rewind time at his own execution trial until he finds an outcome that makes him not guilty.
I remember 2 scenes 1- Where the Kahn and morty are fighting in the siege of terra novels. The kahn is just talking mad shit from the rip. 2. I believe its the word bearer novel in the sige of terra books. Where a custodian after years of waiting, finally spears a word bearer right in his face. The build up and pay off was hilarious.
@@joshtompkins1538 you left out the best part imo- he screams the question at the crewman with his voxcaster at max volume, bursting the crewman's eardrums, then the crewman tries to shoot Xarl in the face, and his bullet ricochets off Xarl's helmet and the crewman brains himself. You are right though. It was rly funny lmao
Trazyn the Infinite is my spirit animal… and I’m a Tyranids player. The guy is a barrel of laughs. I have a very small Necrons force that I intend to round out, still relatively small, just to put Trazyn at its helm. My “Trazyn’s Acquisitors” will then just be used when I want to have a blast screwing with people at the table, and I intend to set up some narrative games to accomplish just that!
I find the interactions between Eisenhorn and Cherubael to be really funny. Just the way Cherubael says "Grehhhgooooorrrrr" in that sad puppy voice in the audiobooks makes me chuckle.
The moment when Cherubael starts doing what Gregor says because he is, officially, shit scared of him was also kind of funny. He's just like "sure thing boss man, whatever you say"
I sure the Eldar God of laughter has done something funny in his life. Or Tzeench trolling people. Both probably involve Ahriman and a library card in some way.
I love how Khorne enjoyed one specific ork WAAAAAGH! so much that he brought all of those orks into his domain to fight, die and repeat for all eternity.
I respect the ork for going after his previous self to steal his own gun. Cause any other race would have thought of dire consequences of messing with the timeline. Would it destroy him? Would it destroy the universe in a paradox? Nope orks don't care.
If we can include moments from the Dawn of War series of games, this moment legit made me pause the game and laugh, cause it was that good. It's from Winter Assault, and Gorgutz was planning his next attack to get the Chaos Lord Crull to come after him. When he askes how to do it, a Meganob suggests calling the Khornate lord a grot. Gorgutz called the plan "Stupid", which he "named" after the Meganob, and then explains his true plan, which is to attack the fallen Titan. As he finishes, he notices the Meganob smirking, and asks why, which the Meganob answered "because you named a plan after me!". Don't need a rocket scientist to explain what "stupid" means, and this Meganob took it as a form of flattery!
The bit that got me from the Dawn of War games was when the rival warboss is yelling at his boyz, unaware that the squiggoths have broken out of their pen, and his last words before being stomped are "Who's making dat rumbling noise?"
I was fucking dying at that part. I've had the commissar cain books on hold for a while since i simply didnt feel like reading them at the time but after this im bingeing that shit lmao
2:51 Would have been pretty cool if you also mentioned how this is actually an ancient night lords tradition that dates back to the legions gang roots on Nostramo and is something that Conrad even forced Sevatar to do.
Idk, I've always loved the metaphor of the Harlequins: when you combine war and aesthetics you unlock something that can't be understood militarily. In the far future of 40k there is nothing but war, however, when you crack a few jokes and try to be pretty you can trick anyone who believes in warfare.
Another great story about the night lord uzas is when he is standing in a corner of a room being dumb as ever while everyone else is planning their next step and suddenly he looks at his red painted hands and goes like: why the f*ck are my my hands red XD
One of the funniest things from 40k in my opinion is the Slaaneshi Warband that attacked a Prison Colony during The Fall of Cadia. The Prisoners revolted and hoped the Chaos Space Marines would free them for helping overrun the garrison.....only to be subjected to a few Slaaneshi tourtures~ I just find it funny how the prisoners thought that they'd get into the good books of literal Chaos Space Marines by helping them overrun a garrison of Guardsmen.
My favorite has to be when a horde of orks are trying to break down the gate of a necron tomb. A mass of bois run up to the gate and start trying to beat it down. A few orks haul up a howitzer and start lobbing shells into it, killing the orks pressed into the gate. While the gun is reloaded another mob runs up to the gate and the cycle repeats a few times.
Best Trazyn moment is in the Fall of Cadia book when a bell is his collection, that is supposed to chime when the end times are close, starts going off. The sound is so loud that it starts destroying parts of his collection so he throws it into the Webway to go “vex the Eldar”.
Not a 40K moment, but Fantasy one. In Elfslayer, Thanquol finally captured and imprisoned Gotrek and Felix. Then he came to them, to gloat in front of his two arch-enemies, calling them names and telling how he would torture them. Then Felix looked at Gotrek: Felix: Do you know him? Gotrek: No, manling. To me they all look the same. Then it was half a page worth of hilarious Thanquol's reaction to this - his arch enemies didn't even know, who he was.
Even when Galaxy is being spitroasted by cumilative effects of calamities of it's existence, there is still time to laugh, even if it's only because your mind is so fried you would turn into a Daemonette of Slaanesh if the fictional setting was real.
I wouldn't go for that because i wouldn't enjoy the process of getting to that ponit. Also with slaanesh, you will enjoy it, but not at first, or for a while.papa nurgle is where it's at.
Personally my favourite name from 40k is Lion El Johnson, named for a poet with almost nothing known about him… except that he wrote a poem called ‘The Dark Angel’.
Corvus Corax is the latin name for common ravens, they're the type species for their genus, which is why they're called "raven ravens". Ferrus Manus does mean "Iron Hands" but not as in "hands of iron" since "ferrus" isn't conjugated. It's just "Iron. Hands."
Funniest moment for me was when Lieutenant sulla was running up to greet Cain, he described her as looking like a cartoon horse with her ponytail, long face, and toothy grin 🐴
Belisarius Cawl talking about the ancient Terran astronomer Gul de Lac and her research into classifying habitable planets with references to ursines. Took me a moment to realise this was a really garbled misunderstanding of the concept of the "Goldilocks zone". en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_habitable_zone

There were a LOT of funny moments in the Night Lords Omnibus. My personal favorite favorite has to when First Claw was cutting their way through an Imperial ship and Talos said what part of the ship they were on and Xarl snatched up an Imperial to ask him if he was only to get shot in the face.
Can you cover the impact that TTS has had on the 40K community?
Hands down one of the funniest for me was when Konrad was going on this long monolog to Vulcan about how he deactivated all the fancy stuff in Vulcan's hammer and he will never escape. Vulcan looks at Konrad and say "but brother you are forgetting one thing, it is also a hammer" then full strength bonks Konrad on the head with it
mega bonk
Yup.
Konrad got hammered after that
That sounds legendary

4:22 my favorite moment in the Cain novels is when he avoids an assassin's bullet because he's admiring Colonel Kasteen's butt as she's walking up the stairs.

Not evening mentioning what Trazyn did with the Bell of Saint Gerstahl!
He stole it from an imperial world (as it was considered a Holy Imperial Relic) and stored it in his Tomb World vaults - just before the 13th Black Crusade it starting chiming extremely loudly and broke a bunch of his other artefacts in his vaults.
In a moment of genius he tossed it into the webway in order to inconvenience the Eldar as much as it did him.
Orikan is also stated that Trazyn morphs his face to smile. He hates this because “Newton’s don’t smile.” There was also the bit with some Orks.

Best naming convention is with the Dark Angels. Lionel "the Lion" Johnsons most notable traits is Pride (because of lions). Dark Angel is the name of a famous poem by the real world Lionel Johnson, where he basically comes out as a homosexual.

*The mechanicum are funny though: Their perception of what a monkey is!*
But then, that would have been a deviation from the historical ledgers in his possession, which clearly described just what a monkey had and had not been, back when there were such things on Terra.
He’d argued with several scholars - Terran, Martian and out-system alike - regarding the veracity of those archives. It seemed everyone had their own viewpoint, backed up by their own research, on just what monkeys had actually been. A particularly misguided rival of Arkhan’s had insisted the creatures could hang from trees by their tails, which was patently nonsense. Any serious scholar could see the beast’s tail was designed as a lash and a puncturing weapon to deliver venom.

Another Trazyn/Orikan moment was when the two teamed up to fight some orcs. The orcs boarded Orikan’s ship, and both Necrons couldn’t figure out if orcs needed to breathe.
Orikan: How can you breathe?!
Ork: wutz bweath?
Trazyn: interesting...
One of the best parts about that is that the Orks were moving around space and boarding the ships were Stormboyz that just had rockets tied to their backs. Upon seeing that one of these rockets was an imperial predator missile, Trazyn didn’t want to take any chances and just trapped them in one of his pokeballs.
In a later battle, Trazyn releases the Orks and the one with the predator missile immediately flies in and detonates, causing major damage to the enemy.
Speaking of Cain, I think it was one of his books, a book about the Cadians or about papa smurf where they found an old man librarian and a sister of battle seemingly coming out of one of their apartments a little.. Messy. And their response was just: Good going for him

They were doing "pure" things
Nah it was an administratum drone who was actually pretty chill
“Cain’s last stand”. I had just listened to that part.
Said sister who Cain had weekly poker matches with.
Favorite part for caiphas cain will always bez for me:
" Colonel karstein demandes silence and the beggining of the meting. Then 30 seconds latter, she demanded it again. Colonel karteins demanded silence, again. Major broklaw shoot his bolter up to the celing. Colonel karstein needed no more to ask for silence"
Kasteen, Karstein are the vampire lords from the Warhammer world. And yes, I also love that part

@@homersimpson5497 Also, the guy taking those notes has a MASSIVE crush on the colonel
"Colonel Kasteen, a fair and gallant warrior. With her is Major Broklaw, equally gallant but not nearly so fair."
Speaking of Orks and dumb shieet: the story of Tuska Denonkilla, who got his ship invaded by Chaos Demons, while travelling through the Warp and loved it so much that he invaded the Eye of Terror, so that he can fight more Demons, is just hilarious.
And when he died killing a powerful demon in the process Khorne made him and his bois his champions and they fight and ressurect regularly in his part of warp
Actually it was because Gork and Mork thought it was awesome too.
This is my favorite trivia in all of 40k. But there's also more. He killed the daemon prince by using his Klaw to rip its groin out.
Orks are just funny in general, from meks joining burna boy teams to ensure they don't set their fellow orks on fire so they can do the burny dance, to Old Zogwart, who has the habit of turning his enemies into squigs.
Only an ork would think to invade the Eye of Terror because there's good fighting there to be done
the funniest fact about cain imo. Is the fact that he has been reported dead so many times yet turned up alive. that he is still registered on active duty even after being buried with full military honors.
Yeah the bureaucrats in the Imperium got so fucking tired having to update his file from KIA, to on active duty to KIA several times over that they just gave up. Permanently putting his status in "On active duty" even after he was buried in the ground. Still thinking that he was gonna pop up in some bar somewhere alive.

@Majorkill here is another good one from Cain.
In Cain's Last Stand. One of Cain's cadets got converted to chaos by chaos warlord Varren (who happened to be powerful psiker). In Yurgen's nullification field he regained control of his actions and told Cain important intel about enemy leader. And before killing himself his last word to Cain was : "Kick his ass for me!" And Cain did! In duel Cain vs Varren Cain made an epic kick in Varren's ass throwing him of the tall building and killing him. And the best part - there is a pict-recording of this duel.
That was pretty grimdark at the same time. The cadet himself was like a young Cain. If only the cadet had of had his own odoriferous but indefatigable aid.
Lol, literal ass kick 🤣
Cain gives the cadet his own commissar sash before the young man takes his own life to stop the chaos psyker regaining control over him. And then when Cain later kicks the warlord off the dam, his last words to them are "Commissar Donal sends his regards."

It should also be noted that while Cain himself thought that Sulla was reckless and annoying, she actually saw him as a kind and supporting mentor figure, and even declared that many of her tactics were inspired by him, often wondering "what would cain do".
Pleas, make video about commissar Cain?
Amberley, being the jealous type actually had a theory that Sulla had a crush on Cain.
Couple for me:
- In Saturnine Abaddon muting Angron over the Vengeful Spirit's communications because he's sick of his ranting, then proceeding to call Angron and Fulgrim "whores" to their faces
- the scene in Gaunt's Ghosts where Gaunt's drunk Commissar mate yells out "burn in hell, you shit-eating dogs!" to the Bluebloods trying to kill them, then they proceed to lead them into a huge Ghost ambush via car chase
Okay, I can respect the sheer amount of balls Abaddon had for saying this to _Deamon Primarchs_ ! XD
It wasn't even an ambush done by the ghosts - Gaunt, Milo and the other commissar just tried to get away and happened to run into the ghosts, who were busy unloading a truck full of illegal/black market stuff like alcohol and porn that Rawne, Corbec and Feygor had stolen from a local crime boss.
When Warhammer becomes a Dark Comedy it all just works, the grimdark often helps it out when it goes all out on balls to the wall insanity.
I recall one funny moment from the Night Lords novels, I think the last one, when they see a loyalist Space Marine champion walking down the corridor towards them, dripping with impressive wargear, and one of them just laughs and basically says ''We are so dead'' .
his homie: “no. you are.” *teleports out*
For me a funny moment in the Black Dragons book is when they are saving some slaves on a ship held by Dark Eldar, and when they see the Black Dragons they were sure they would kill them, then Volos, the BD Captain was like "perhaps they would be calmer if we were Ultramarines" lol.
Tarik: Do you want me to slap you, Sigismund?
Rogal Dorn: Spare him the slap, Tarik. He bruises easily.
I straight laughed out loud from ghjs
One of the moments I think is hilarious is when a group of space marines find a dreadnought ( pretty sure it was chyron from the lamentors / deathwatch ) after he jumped out of a pile of Xenos corpses, in which he was hiding to ambush the xenos if more came.
Yeah he was from the Lamenters
Wait... Dreadnoughts can jump?!
Anything can jump if you put powerful enough legs on it
Trazyn once roasted a guy over when the guy asked if he is going to destroy his planet,Trazyn shown him a list of all ecological disasters his planet will inevitabily suffer due to humanity being pollution-loving idiots and then he asked "do you really need the help?"
Also the idea of an imperial world hailing a necron as a hero and building a statue of him is pretty wholesome.
Trazyn steals the show but orokin is pretty hilarious too. I like the he uses chronomancy to rewind time at his own execution trial until he finds an outcome that makes him not guilty.
I remember 2 scenes
1- Where the Kahn and morty are fighting in the siege of terra novels. The kahn is just talking mad shit from the rip.
2. I believe its the word bearer novel in the sige of terra books. Where a custodian after years of waiting, finally spears a word bearer right in his face. The build up and pay off was hilarious.
Another funny one from Uzas is when he shook a poor crewman of an imperium ship asking where he was stationed.
That was xarl
@@ohmygoditisspider7953 either way it was funny as hell and should have been on this list.
@@joshtompkins1538 you left out the best part imo- he screams the question at the crewman with his voxcaster at max volume, bursting the crewman's eardrums, then the crewman tries to shoot Xarl in the face, and his bullet ricochets off Xarl's helmet and the crewman brains himself.
You are right though. It was rly funny lmao
Love it...
WHERE'S MY FUCKING ROBOUTIAN HERESY MAJORKILL?!?! WHERE!!
Trazyn the Infinite is my spirit animal… and I’m a Tyranids player. The guy is a barrel of laughs. I have a very small Necrons force that I intend to round out, still relatively small, just to put Trazyn at its helm. My “Trazyn’s Acquisitors” will then just be used when I want to have a blast screwing with people at the table, and I intend to set up some narrative games to accomplish just that!
I find the interactions between Eisenhorn and Cherubael to be really funny. Just the way Cherubael says "Grehhhgooooorrrrr" in that sad puppy voice in the audiobooks makes me chuckle.
The moment when Cherubael starts doing what Gregor says because he is, officially, shit scared of him was also kind of funny. He's just like "sure thing boss man, whatever you say"
I sure the Eldar God of laughter has done something funny in his life. Or Tzeench trolling people. Both probably involve Ahriman and a library card in some way.
Wait not even a mention of "Alessio, you've lost your arm!" "No I haven't, it's right over there."
Cegorach: "It would have been funny if the galaxy wasn't so grimdark... Well what the heck, I'll laugh anyway!"
I love how Khorne enjoyed one specific ork WAAAAAGH! so much that he brought all of those orks into his domain to fight, die and repeat for all eternity.
I respect the ork for going after his previous self to steal his own gun. Cause any other race would have thought of dire consequences of messing with the timeline. Would it destroy him? Would it destroy the universe in a paradox? Nope orks don't care.
If we can include moments from the Dawn of War series of games, this moment legit made me pause the game and laugh, cause it was that good.
It's from Winter Assault, and Gorgutz was planning his next attack to get the Chaos Lord Crull to come after him. When he askes how to do it, a Meganob suggests calling the Khornate lord a grot. Gorgutz called the plan "Stupid", which he "named" after the Meganob, and then explains his true plan, which is to attack the fallen Titan. As he finishes, he notices the Meganob smirking, and asks why, which the Meganob answered "because you named a plan after me!". Don't need a rocket scientist to explain what "stupid" means, and this Meganob took it as a form of flattery!
The bit that got me from the Dawn of War games was when the rival warboss is yelling at his boyz, unaware that the squiggoths have broken out of their pen, and his last words before being stomped are "Who's making dat rumbling noise?"
"Affirmative, Grand Master. They are indeed digganobz."
"GUD."
I've always liked that the Emperor convinced Leman Russ to follow him by knocking his smug ass out by punching him in the face with a power fist.
no lie, i laughed out loud at the story about the scribe dissing everyone in a meeting.
Edit: fucking changeling, lets goooo
I was fucking dying at that part. I've had the commissar cain books on hold for a while since i simply didnt feel like reading them at the time but after this im bingeing that shit lmao
2:51 Would have been pretty cool if you also mentioned how this is actually an ancient night lords tradition that dates back to the legions gang roots on Nostramo and is something that Conrad even forced Sevatar to do.
Top 11 is harlequins being an S+ tier faction
Facts
Based and Clownpilled
Idk, I've always loved the metaphor of the Harlequins: when you combine war and aesthetics you unlock something that can't be understood militarily. In the far future of 40k there is nothing but war, however, when you crack a few jokes and try to be pretty you can trick anyone who believes in warfare.
Another great story about the night lord uzas is when he is standing in a corner of a room being dumb as ever while everyone else is planning their next step and suddenly he looks at his red painted hands and goes like: why the f*ck are my my hands red XD
One of the funniest things from 40k in my opinion is the Slaaneshi Warband that attacked a Prison Colony during The Fall of Cadia. The Prisoners revolted and hoped the Chaos Space Marines would free them for helping overrun the garrison.....only to be subjected to a few Slaaneshi tourtures~
I just find it funny how the prisoners thought that they'd get into the good books of literal Chaos Space Marines by helping them overrun a garrison of Guardsmen.
My favorite has to be when a horde of orks are trying to break down the gate of a necron tomb. A mass of bois run up to the gate and start trying to beat it down. A few orks haul up a howitzer and start lobbing shells into it, killing the orks pressed into the gate. While the gun is reloaded another mob runs up to the gate and the cycle repeats a few times.
glad you did this my man. Diggas are among my favorite things in the lore
What up my digga?! Me too!
Fun fact: Digger is a slang term for an Australia soldier.
You know Trazyn would have the biggest troll face every time he steals something from the Blood Ravens.
Xarl roasting the Red Corsairs when they board Hells Iris is pog
Best Trazyn moment is in the Fall of Cadia book when a bell is his collection, that is supposed to chime when the end times are close, starts going off. The sound is so loud that it starts destroying parts of his collection so he throws it into the Webway to go “vex the Eldar”.
The Cain books and Infinite and Divine are the most fun I’ve had reading Warhammer
Not a 40K moment, but Fantasy one. In Elfslayer, Thanquol finally captured and imprisoned Gotrek and Felix. Then he came to them, to gloat in front of his two arch-enemies, calling them names and telling how he would torture them. Then Felix looked at Gotrek:
Felix: Do you know him?
Gotrek: No, manling. To me they all look the same.
Then it was half a page worth of hilarious Thanquol's reaction to this - his arch enemies didn't even know, who he was.
Even when Galaxy is being spitroasted by cumilative effects of calamities of it's existence, there is still time to laugh, even if it's only because your mind is so fried you would turn into a Daemonette of Slaanesh if the fictional setting was real.
I wouldn't go for that because i wouldn't enjoy the process of getting to that ponit. Also with slaanesh, you will enjoy it, but not at first, or for a while.papa nurgle is where it's at.
Personally my favourite name from 40k is Lion El Johnson, named for a poet with almost nothing known about him… except that he wrote a poem called ‘The Dark Angel’.
Corvus Corax is the latin name for common ravens, they're the type species for their genus, which is why they're called "raven ravens".
Ferrus Manus does mean "Iron Hands" but not as in "hands of iron" since "ferrus" isn't conjugated. It's just "Iron. Hands."
I'm quite confident Commissar Caine and his Adjudant Jurgen take a bit of inspiration from Edmund Blackadder and his manservant Baldrick.
Funniest moment for me was when Lieutenant sulla was running up to greet Cain, he described her as looking like a cartoon horse with her ponytail, long face, and toothy grin 🐴
Belisarius Cawl talking about the ancient Terran astronomer Gul de Lac and her research into classifying habitable planets with references to ursines.
Took me a moment to realise this was a really garbled misunderstanding of the concept of the "Goldilocks zone".
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_habitable_zone
The Night Lords trilogy had a fair amount of dark humour I thought
