    Dark age tech Knights were the equivalent of excavators for colony worlds. Meaning theres a nonzero chance the STCs for some Knights may have a Caterpillar logo embedded in the data, or a few houses who's heraldry favor shades of green and running deer.

    There’s a book called “shield of the emperor” a book comprised of multiple imperial guard short stories but the one that stands out the most to me is “death world “ which covers a group of catachan guardsmen being deployed to a world called “ Rogar III” a world which was mysteriously changed to a death world over night.. upon arrival they have to fight orks upon the planet but are constantly being attacked and stalked by the planets horrors! It’s something NOBODY talks about and it’s such a cool and awesome horror story! I’d love nothing more then to hear you cover this book and its awesomeness! This book is what got me through the mental hospital when I was alone and bored and on the brink of insanity, reading through it enthralled me deeper into the world of 40K and made me so much happier to have some kind of connection to my hobby while I was behind those walls.. yet when I got out to see how many people covered these stories I was deeply saddened to see absolutely no 40K content creators were covering it which shocked me because of how interesting and cool the book itself was! Anyways I’m really hoping you read this and consider suggestion

    As an avid fan of both medieval history and fantasy (especially The Elder Scrolls) and futuristic mechs akin to Titanfall, this by far, is one of two of my favorite factions from Warhammer 40k. Glad to have found such an extensive video explaining the lore!

    Honestly, on the note of the last bit about bot having anything truly bad to highlight is probably a good thing. I think it is a bit of a bright spot in the darkness which is needed from time to time.

    Yyeeaahhh! I have been waiting for this video for so long!
    Started getting into Warhammer a few months ago, and I almost immediately gravitated towards knights, but lore has been somewhat difficult to find. Love all of these lore videos and they've really helped me get into the hobby. Now I know a lot more about knights and how to integrate them into the lore of my own forge world, as I play them next to my AdMech army.

    It’s great to know i’m not the only one who appreciates the uniqueness of the Imperial Knights lore in wh40k. I remember reading through their codex when it first released, and watching this video reminded me of how satisfied I was with how rich and unique their lore was written and presented. They truly stand out, even among a universe that was already very full of so many niche factions.

    "A knight is sworn to valor.
    His heart knows only virtue.
    His blade defends the helpless.
    His might upholds the weak.
    His word speaks only truth.
    His *wrath* undoes the wicked." - King Arthur, Dragonheart
    the Iron Harvest artwork throughout the video was a nice touch, Wes. very nice indeed.
    also, if you think an Imperial Knight is cool, you should see the artwork someone did of one riding a tyranid Hierophant.

    Wes, you’re my favorite and I love you. I’ve got your back, dawg. But we might need to proofread our spelling/pronunciation a bit. I volunteer myself for this task.
    Knight Gallant is spelled “Gallent” and pronounced “gal-ee-ent” in this amazing and extremely well researched video.
    “Gallant” is pronounced “GAL-ent”.
    I mention this not to be pedantic (though I am certainly a pedant), but because you clearly put SO MUCH WORK into these videos and if there’s a tiny thing I can suggest that helps the fit and finish - I cannot help but mention it.
    Keep it up. If I were a Chaos God, you would be my Champion.

    okay the fact that these things were originally just high tech construction/loging equipment is hilarious and cool, imagine you get flung into the far future and they want to show you a war machines called "the Jousters" and its just forklifts whos lifts have been sharpend and engines have been upgraded to go really fast and their users have no clue that what theyre driving were originally made for picking up heavy boxes
