What's going on there? It's a scary man with
a... John Titus. I'm John Titus. I'm here to
retake the 500 Worlds. I'm John Titus, and we're
going to retake Ultramar. Well, I don't have
that, but I do have this soda. Wow, that's a
picture. I didn't see the picture before the
stream. Wow. For those of you who can't quite
see it, this is Saddam Hussein. Wow. What a way
to start an episode. I've been having paracetamol
cough syrup. Make up some purple lean. Get some
purple drink in you. Get yourself some soda blocked
by debris and rubble. White vinegar and bicarbonate.
That'll clean me out. Next time I'm sick, I'm
mixing up the cough syrup with the Sprite. It's
happening. Cough syrup? Cough syrup. Cough syrup.
anyways uh we're gonna talk about the 500 worlds
today cool because eli has been a gem and he's
got the actual book because um question you like
can you buy them separately or do you have to
buy them all in like a collection buy them all
together i think it was like literally 100 canadian
dollars for these freaking books 80 at least
yeah wow yeah yeah i just want the one the sliver
one i just want the law yeah me too the necrons
lore like this this part of the book is goaded
the rest of it pretty mid if i'm being honest
it's because it has people stick around stick
around and keep on watching because the necrons
lore is cool okay um so before um because eli's
done the deep dive we we've got colin who's gonna
do like a little bit of well yeah yeah up to
like your knees uh but uh before that uh 500
worlds It's actually something that bridges the
divide between 40K and 30K. So to start us off,
Colin, what exactly is the deal with the 500
worlds of Ultramar? Well, you see the 500 worlds
of Ultramar, right? That's Gilliman's crib. It's
where he lives on all of them. That was the stupidest
thing. God, he's massive. Dude, he's the biggest
Primark. It's not Vulcan, it's Gilliman. He's
like 10 planets. Stupid. But no, that was inflation.
It has been 10 ,000 years, right? Like, you know,
it's the Kragian dollar ain't what it used to
be. But no, the 500 worlds is sure enough when,
you know, Gilliman was part of just on his own.
He landed on the Krag. It was it was already
a pretty solid place. And he started, sure enough,
once he became the guy in charge, once he once
he became Augustus Foley after his dad died.
He started expanding Macrog into a nice little
mini space empire, relative to the Imperium anyways,
mini. By the time the Emperor found him, it was
pretty decently sized. And over the course of
the, you know, as the Great Crusade went on a
little bit, it would reach its peak, which was,
of course, 500 world. There he is. There he is
lounging on his well -deserved throne. And it
was good. Even this early into the Imperium's
history, still the Great Crusade. This was probably
the second wealthiest, nicest place to be, short
of Terra. Quite frankly, I'm going to say it
was the nicest place to be because Terra is hive
shit world. Oh, definitely. It stinks. And Mars
is... well yeah mars is like do you want to be
lobotomized and terror is like get into the dirt
pilgrim like ultramar is arguably the nicest
place ever because it's a bit more lax with you
know do we have to follow dad's rule if he's
all the way over there yeah it's okay we can
play games until midnight it's fine at least
compared to you know like those the random pleasure
worlds or whatever that are probably you know
half the time they're just slanesh fronts it's
like a shell company For a chaos god, Ultramar
is one of the nice places to be. And it was a
bastion of imperial power far out in the galaxy.
Because for those of you who might not be familiar
with the map of the 40k galaxy, Ultramar is damn
near at the eastern rim of the galaxy. It is
very close to the edge in a segmentum ultima.
And unfortunately, really close to the Tau Empire,
which is sad. That's not a problem right now.
The tower is still cavemen at this point in time.
No warp storm time warp shenanigans happen yet.
They're still just hanging out somewhere. But
yeah, so even this early on, Ultramar is a jewel
of the Imperium. Macrog is the shining little
gem on top of the jewel. And it was pretty well.
And even throughout the heresy, the 500 worlds
were mostly intact. Lorgar and Angeron did burn
down. I think it was like a hundred worlds. He
said like reduced a hundred to ashes. I think
it was 70 in the end, wasn't it? 70. I think
because the 70th was new Syria, wasn't it? And
then it like, it's like the last one. And then
they make the ruin storm. Well, in something
that, you know, I'll break form a little bit.
We'll be nice to them and say, we'll round it
up to 100. Probably 100. Let's be honest. 70
to 100. Up to a fifth of Ultramar was burned
to the ground, which sucks. But it was reclaimed.
It was rebuilt. You know, the word bearers and
world eaters weren't really conquering. It was
the Shadow Crusade. They were just kind of causing
a ruckus to keep Gilman busy from the rest of
the heresy. After that, things were rebuilt.
Kalth was turned into a marble, and if anything,
that kind of just helped because it became the
best shipyard short of, I think, isn't Saturn
a shipyard in Terra? Well, I know there's the
Saturnine, like what they call the solar auxilia
people, the Saturnine. They kind of fall by the
wayside by the end of the Horus heresy. Because
even one of the books, Fury's Abyss, it's like,
oh, we used to be the top dogs in the Navy. Now
no one cares about us anymore. So I think it's
a bit more homogenized. But they're probably
still quite a powerhouse. But you got Mars. Mars.
You got Mars. Or was it Jupiter? I swore one
of the gas giants was also a shipyard in the
solar system. Probably Jupiter, yeah. Which makes
the Grey Knight's secret base right in front
of it kind of awkward. But for Ultramar, we'll
get back on top of Colin. It got punched, you
know, it got a sucker punch, but it recovered.
But come the end of the heresy, Gilliman does
his thing and splits all the legions into chapters,
which does include his own legion. He's mostly
fair with that. Ignore the Genesis chapter over
there. And Gilliman, you know, as a result of
all this, Ultramar kind of is intentionally shrunk
a bit because... He's, of course, you know, Macrog
is still going to be in the hands of the Ultramarines.
I'd say he's earned that little bit of nepotism.
But as a Legion, you could justify having 500
worlds supplying one Legion, make sure they're
never going to be waiting too long for supplies
and resources and whatnot. 1 ,000 dudes do not
need 500 planets. That is very unnecessary. So
it was cut down a bit. jumping ahead a bit but
it's you could summarize it at least i think
very nicely by saying and then the next 10 000
years happened where you know the imperium stagnated
stagnated some more started declining and at
various paces to ultra mars credit and mcrog
mostly now because it's kind of shrinking around
mcrog for the ultra marines it held out better
than anyone else uh the ultra marines have kept
a large amount of their stuff from the great
crusade mcrog itself has for the most part it's
been like invaded like three times over the course
of ten thousand years it's done pretty well for
itself let lest we not forget lest we not forget
the first tyrannic war well that's you know it
come like the lat come the modern era 40k those
invasions suddenly went from like zero over nine
thousand years to bam hansu bam tyranids bam
more tyranids but for the most part ultramar
had remained fairly stable but That is by comparison
to the rest of the Imperium. It had still, you
know, everyone forgot how to do certain things.
The Macrog just forgot how to, you know, make
less things like the degradation hit them the
least, but it still hit them. And even beyond
that, even beyond Gilman's initial, you know,
the initial, not culling, what's the downsizing,
the initial downsizing of how, you know, big
the... Ultramarine's territory was. It did still,
for various other reasons, just over the course
of 10 ,000 years, shrink more and more until
we get to the modern day of the setting. And
by the time McGilliman's return, they had like
a handful. They were a fraction of the 500 worlds.
For one reason or another, a lot of them had
become independent. Not necessarily independent
from the Imperium, although some certainly did.
But more so, at least in the case of some of
them, it's like you're no longer... you're not
ruling us anymore, Ultramarines. We're doing
our own thing now. We're still paying the tithes,
still paying our taxes, but we're not flying
the blue flag anymore. Don't some of them, they
end up, instead of having like a ruling like
Civitas or other similar things that they had
in McCrae, they end up just going to like noble
families just because. Yeah. They just take them.
They start like the rest of the Imperiums, you
know. noble family endless hell of imperial government
yeah imperial governor politics kind of takes
over again like you know kind of like i was saying
there's still imperial worlds they sure as hell
aren't ultramarine worlds anymore gilliman wakes
up and he did you know kind of do this uh maybe
he would have been maybe things would have been
different if you know whatever amount of planets
he originally gave them at first was still what
they held but that was not the case Ultramarines
were a fraction of their former selves. And he's
not a fan of that. So, after the various Indominus
Crusades and all, you know, waking up, one -punch
manning his way through world leaders and whatnot,
he declares and puts our good old pal Captain,
now once again Captain Titus, in charge of one
very simple but certainly not easy mission. To
bring back the 500 worlds to... Exactly what
it says on the tin. Bring them up to the 500
they once were. As per the trailer he got, Titus
is not sure if that's physically possible, but
it's better to have something worth fighting
for, right? What is that line in Star Trek? Maybe
it's better to want than not have. I would like
to say he can always resort... I don't think
that's it. He can always resort to, I have main
character energy. Why not? Let's give it a pass.
Well, he can't acknowledge that in -universe.
That's a narrative faux pas. You can only do
that if you're thankful. But Titus, it's an uphill
battle to say the least. You know, going into
the 500 Worlds campaign, Titus is going to give
it his best alongside all of the forces under
his command. You know, the Second Company, the
Auxilia forces. He's ready to try and reclaim
those 500 Worlds. Whether or not he's going to
succeed, he doesn't seem to think he can. But,
hey, you know, it's better to have goals, right?
And he certainly has one hell of a goal in front
of him. he's not alone though and he is building
upon the uh there's some work in the dark imperium
trilogy that goes on i'm sure andy's maybe got
some parts for that but um he's not there's been
some work in the background it's not just like
a random uh endeavor necessarily like but titus
is now leading it rather than it's just a he's
no stronger a stabilizer it's not a stabilization
effort it's a proactive effort but i think a
lot of the yeah yeah ultra marines probably fall
into the um i think kalgar said at one point
like he's when gilliman returned he kind of realizes
like they thought they were doing a great job
the ultra marines and they realized they've just
been reactive not proactive yeah that was this
entire time very good way to put what i was trying
to say where it's like they they fell apart the
least but they still kind of fell apart so the
500 worlds campaign is an effort to at least
territorially fix that for doing for being the
guy in charge of the campaign ted is quite a
lot of fighting instead of man table things i
mean he's just on the ground for most of this
stuff not even like telling people what to do
he's i guess he's entrusted the other guys I
mean, you know, if we're being nice, right, a
quality of leadership is knowing when to delegate.
You know, maybe if some people in charge of the
Great Crusade knew how to delegate a bit better,
things would be a little nicer in the Imperium.
Failing that. I'm watching Space Marine 2 footage
right now. I think we know what Titus is best
at. And it's when he's turning people into meat.
Apparently, according to Imperial history, one
can delegate too much and then it just leads
to endless 10 ,000 years of bureaucracy and stagnation.
You gotta find that sweet spot. And because I
thought it'd be cute, I'm cosplaying as Metaurus
from Secret Level. Look at that. Very nice. Idris
Elba. Always a banger. Shout out to Knuckles.
Yeah. All right. That's everything we got on
the 500 Worlds, I assume, Colin. Just a brief
little buildup. Once again, shout out to the
religious planet named Sotha. Glory to the tribunal.
Esbandor is dead, right, as well, Andy, from
Dark Imperium, the one that the Death Guard attacked.
It was like a place of, like, you know, uh grand
structures and stuff and now it's like a big
smelly cesspit in the words of uh decimus of
the 11th company well got crunked it was pretty
bad yeah he did not say that by the way yeah
dark imperium plague wars has done a number on
the 500 worlds what's aryan has no chill with
that petulant child energy going on yeah gilliman
gilliman talks about that in his little speech
he has a big I don't actually know if it was
a speech. I think it was just a letter that he
wrote, actually. It's the preface to the Consialis
Imperitus Ultramar. Yeah, it wasn't a speech.
It was just a letter. What did he say? Lobos,
Parmenio, and Eax are still festering from the
Death Guard wounds. But he does mention Mortarion
a little bit, and now he doesn't like him. Anyways,
I guess a tiny bit more on the 500 Worlds. Because
there's actually not that much lore on the 500
Worlds specifically, but I'll tell you about
it later. There's four Tetras, the Northern,
Southern, Eastern, and Western one. Andy will
probably know more about these characters, so
I'll let him talk about it. The Northern one
is under Captain Agamemnon, and they're fighting
Chaos Marines. The Southern one is under Captain
Porton, who was part of the Genesis chapter.
it's hard the southern place is uh small but
it's like really impossible to get around they're
fighting xenos pirates and other such things
and people uprisings and stuff keep happening
they're called like the haunted uh the haunted
front or something like that to to keep up with
you uh captain agaman is first captain of the
ultramarines he's like the regent of ultramar
other guy no clue he's just some random love
shadow genesis chapter guy i have no idea who
that is yeah the book also The book also typos
and says in one page it says Captain Fortson
is a Doom Eagles captain and then another page
it says he's the Genesis chapter captain. Is
it the case that maybe they've retconned it that
Genesis is not just like the reserves for the
Ultramarines but like the whole of the ten shield
worlds? Because bear in mind there are ten shield
worlds in the 500 worlds and Ultramarines is
one of them. Genesis chapter is not one of them.
So maybe now they're like, we just divert them
to all 10. But you're on the Protoss front, which
is a... Like Starcraft? I guess so. The Protoss
front. This is Captain Balthus. Am I talking
about Captain Balthus? Am I talking about the
right guy right now? Am I trolling you guys?
No, I'm talking about Captain Portis. Sorry.
I'm going from Starcraft to Balthus Argeld right
now. Yeah, sorry. The Andermung front says Captain
Portis of the Doom Eagles governs the Southern
Tetra. And then if we go freaking over here.
Bear with me, Chad. Bear with me. Maybe there's
just two guys with the same name. In Warhammer,
Hal? So I was talking about Captain Fortin. I
am definitely trolling. I am talking about Captain
Fortin. The Captain Fortin says it's the Doom
Eagles. Now it says Captain Fortin Genesis Chapter.
And the Amordung front, whatever it comprises,
blah, blah, blah. Here, Captain Portent of the
Genesis chapter oversees the Tetra's amalgamation.
Because the thing is, there used to be five Tetrarchs.
So I assume that because of the aforementioned
planet that gets absolutely bodied, they're like,
well, we don't need that Tetrarch anymore. We're
going to have four. And then each Tetrarch has
a Tetra, I assume. Yeah. Because, yeah, poor,
poor Spandor. So anyways, that doesn't actually
matter. That's just a silly typo. I assume that's
supposed to be the Genesis chapter, not the Doom
Eagles, because the Doom Eagles are already in
a different one. Well, the Genesis chapter aren't
part of the S .H .I .E .L .D. world, so I assume
it's either like a mistake or it's he used to
be part of the Genesis, then he was sent to the
Doom Eagles, and therefore he can be both. It's
one of those two. It's got to be. Yeah, I don't
know. It's a weird choice, I guess. um the eastern
tetra is uh let's see is under captain felix
under captain felix is he does he matter he's
the he's weird he's the 11th captain of the ultramarines
he's in like the god blight books and he's a
primaris and then gilliman's like screw the codex
i'm gonna have 11 captains i don't think you're
allowed to do that gilliman you did this before
so he's felix decimus i believe his name is Look,
if there's anyone who can unwrite the Codex,
you know, I'm going with the guy who wrote it
to begin with. And every Codex -compliant chapter
seeing this is like, he can't keep getting away
with this! Because he did it with the size of
the Emperor, too, so yeah. Your dad should have
come back first then, bozos. And sorry, I misspoke.
The Southern Tetra's not the haunted one. That's
the West Tetra. The Southern one, it's just hard
to get around, so they're just going slow and
steady. But the Eastern one is Captain Felix.
He's been fighting in a handful of sectors while
ensuring the security. In other words, it's a
very conservative approach, I guess, 50 -50.
His initial wins have been very big, but the
task ahead of him is very large, and he has a
ton of very big planets to take. Then the West
Tetra is Captain Balthus, who's actually of the
Doom Eagles. And this is the Haunted Front. It's
supernatural, and there's scary threats, and
reclaimed worlds don't stay under control, and
they kept having rebellions or disasters. And
so Mr. Balthus is trying to go fast and hard.
Is he everything cool about him, Andy? Just a
guy. All right. Just a Dumizos guy. He's raised
his hands for the audio listeners. As I pointed
out, audio listeners, the text is like a couple
sentences for these sections. So there's like
really not a lot to go about. But alongside Titus
are his wardens of Ultramar, as I believe they're
called, in the box. The box that comes with the
five dudes. uh I don't know it's a little awkward
I I don't know if you can separate them in the
game I feel like you should be able to you shouldn't
have three human beings running around with Space
Marine squad in the front lines you can as you
can I think you can take Titus separately or
you can take him with this as a come on as like
a command squad yeah you can get for regular
Space Marines because the wardens of Ultramar
are basically like an elite task force of mortals
and Astartes as far as I can tell Most of them,
the mortals don't have anything to do with fighting,
though, so it doesn't make much sense for them
to be on tabletop, to be honest, but it's fine.
They're cool. They look cool. I think they're
more supplemental. They're not a guard regiment,
but they do have one of the ultramarines, McCraggy,
and it's not a planetary defense force. It's
like a militia, and the militia bolsters the
second company. Yes. In AOS, there's a guy who's...
in the idoneth army who's he's just an accountant
he's hanging around so hey yeah who's the who's
the the death guard guy who's got the um the
book and he gives you command points oh the uh
the scribe or whatever yeah people in the chat
please let us i don't know i can't remember he
just sits there and just gives people command
points lord gillius scrungled those yeah i don't
know it's grotesque yeah uh so anyway i'll just
mention the four new like um cuban characters
then andy or someone can talk about uh chad real
and idris elba i don't remember his name uh so
first of all there's like it's like literally
like two sentences of lore that they get in this
book i'm not sure if they're in any novels uh
i would be surprised if they're they're new they're
all new yeah surely we're gonna get 500 world's
novels Do you think we will? Or do you think
it's just going to be a random campaign? Well,
I guess the elephant in the room is, is this
going to be like where Space Marine 2 goes? I
wouldn't mind if Space Marine 2, instead of having
a linear campaign, was more like... Three. Sorry,
three. I wouldn't mind if it was more like...
I wouldn't mind if it was more like Battlefleet
Gothic, where it was like you have a big section
of space, and it's like you have a timer, kind
of like in Mechanicus, and you could just be
like... here are all these places and pick them
and do like missions, bring them into the fold,
crush this rebellion, bolster this garrison.
And then it's all more like you have to have
like a gauge or something to build up at the
end of the campaign and you have to pick and
choose. Like that would be fun, but then it would
really mess with the law, I guess. This also
sounds way too large scale. for this company.
I think they'd rather spend 90 % of their time
making the walls look pretty and ray tracing
water. So whatever. I don't like them. I don't
like them. It doesn't matter. Whatever. 500 Worlds.
The new characters. There's Gaia Silva, Emilia
Minervis, Daniel Cornelius, and Lucia. I don't
know which one. I'll say Lucia for now. So Gaia
Silva. He's a Commodore in the Ultramar Fleet.
This is a Navy guy. He's known for being very
calm and collected, always having a cool head,
being very diplomatic and making sure the relations
between the Space Marines and the Mortal Crew
and they get along. He has Emperor -class flagship,
the Magnificence of Throne. That's it. Amelia
is the Legatus of the Defense Auxilia. of the
30th she leads the 30th mcraig defense auxilia
uh one of these regiments sorry this regiment
is attached to titus's fleet amongst many other
ones she's a big fan of the codex she has memorized
from the front to back yeah that's it she's basically
a mortal ultramarine it's kind of yeah kind of
whack yeah uh daniel cornelius is the navigator
sorry not navigator uh astropath he served in
fortress the fortress of Hera for over a century.
He's now in Titus's fleet. He's kind of a jerk
and no one likes him, but Titus likes him. He's
really good at being an astropath and sending
messages. He's a really good mailman. He makes
people really mad, but Titus is always on his
side and keeps him safe. He's that grumpy co
-worker who always does a good job, but Titus
would be like, all right. Navigator, can you,
not Navigator, Astropath, could you send me a
message to McCrag? He's like, oh, do you want
me to make some recap for you as well? And he's
just there like, I know you're under a lot of
stress. You're an old geezer. You're a hundred
years old and you're always being attacked by
demons. I'm going to be patient with you. Could
you please send a message to McCrag? And he's
like, okay. He's just a grumpy git. He's a grumpy
git. titus knows that under his grumpiness he's
sure he loves ultramar and he'll do anything
for it it is kind of funny that you can have
titus's literal mailman walking around on tabletop
with you and like psychic blasting people uh
lucia besta is the plenty never i've never heard
this word in my life to be honest uh plenty potentiary
of ultramar plenty potentiary yeah yeah uh she's
a negotiator to bring resistance worlds into
the fold without battle, and she's really good
at negotiating. And that's it. Those are your
new immortal characters in the box. General Kenobi.
To be fair to her, she's also the one person
on the team who's like, can we get one of the
500 worlds without any conflict? I'll try and
find a way of doing that, because otherwise it's
going to be a bloodbath. Yeah, because a lot
of these, as we said, are just pretty regular
worlds. who aren't part of Ultima anymore. So
they're kind of trying to bring them back. They
don't have to fight on all of these fronts, which
is pretty nice. But there's your four new immortal
characters. There's every piece of lore that
is currently on them. Andy, would you like to
talk about the two Space Marines? All right.
Who should I pick first? Do we want, as Eli would
call him, Idris Elba, Metaurus? Or do I talk
about Gadda's? Best to last. Best for last. Okay,
I'll start with Gadriel then. I like Metaurus,
so I'm going to go with Gadas. You know, I wish
Chiron lived instead. Yeah, we all do. Shall
I mention Chiron briefly? Yeah, they died. Let
me see. There's actually a little, like, they
get their tiny little blurb in here saying, oops,
they died, sorry. Here's Acheron's fall. He could
only spare three men to bring to the Genestealer
cult planet. I do know the story, so I might
as well say it, I guess. Captain Acheron was
leading his guys and they got the distress signal
from an imperial world and they went to investigate
because there was also missing shipments of dudes
and stuff. When they got there, the Genestealer
cults trolled them and they closed the domes
to the city. Or no, they didn't close it. Acheron
closed it, I guess. He trapped the man. He trapped
the Genestealer. He found Genestealer cults,
so Acheron was like... sacrificed himself, closed
the nuclear protection dome to the city so no
one could get out. And then the Ultramarines,
including Chiron and Acheron, fell in battle
to the glorious Genestealer cults. The Forearmed
Emperor was victorious that day. The Genestealer
cults beat the Ultramarines. Who could have ever
thought? Glory to the Forearmed Emperor. And
it's worth mentioning as well that with Titus
leaving Second Company for a brief time for Secret
Level, Chiron was promoted to lieutenant to replace
him. So he actually like circumvented Gadriel
because Gadriel was a sergeant. He went, oh,
what the hell? He gets like two promotions at
once. That's not fair. And then it's just like,
oh, he's dead. It's a bit sad that Gadriel survives
when I think Chiron was a better character because
Gadriel is a snitch and also he's a nerd and
I hate him. He doesn't even have a backstory.
Chiron has an actual backstory. He was less frumpy
Leandros, basically, Gados. But he's handsome.
But before we get to Gados and the boys, shall
we go through some donations? Yeah, sure. Oh,
yeah. Thank you, Chad, for donating. Thank you,
everyone. Hal became the, what's he called? The
Jug Fellow. I don't know if anybody would ask
for that. Sasquatch. Thank you for $2. Papa Nurgle
just wants to give everyone hugs. That's right,
he does. I appreciate it. He didn't want to give
me a hug, but I'm going to be there with Mr.
Clean. I'm going to push him away. We wear deodorant
on lore crimes. Yes, sir. It's very easy and
cheap. You should buy some and wear it. I like
this blue -collar cat pic. He's cool. It's pretty
good. Carson Larson. I like that. $30 .18. Thank
you for the fiber. Love the lore crime, boys.
Thank you. Also can't wait for Titus to 500 all
over my world. So true. Bucket of steel table
with the $2 .79 Canadian. Why does Colin look
like that? This is just how he looks, bro. I
think he means why is your face so bright? I
was actually just going to turn on the light
in this room because, you know. Sun's going down
a little bit. Better. It's still very bright.
It's night time where we are. Me and Andy. Two
in the afternoon. Would you like to read this,
Hal? My poor voice is dying here. Eli and Hal
will wear a green hat 27th of Feb for two euros.

While his goth, EldarGF, downvoted again. Bounces
on it crazy style. Y 'all have a good day, boys.
You have a good day, too. Thank you, man. Have
a lovely day. Fulgrim, no diffs. Fulgrim, no
diffs. Can I call it? Would you like to read
his one? Kill Fulgrim. Anyways, Shalaxy's megalomaniacal
gripper. Thank you for the 5CA again. Nausea
overwhelms you as I bellow. It is I who waits
in the halls. You smell that heat. I am he, the
one himself. He who farts on his roommate's door.
Wow. Godspeed. It still makes hell laugh every
time, bro. The secret to this guy's heart. It's
the bit where the guy in the video goes, did
you see that light? That light come across the
screen? It's still... It's been four years. It's
been four years. And he's still talking about
it. Don't kill me, man. USA for five. The most
devastating hit to Ultramar was the Great Gelt
Recession of M41. More of metal! So true. Glory
to Gelt. Archangel QB8. He's been a member for
25 months. Over two years. I still think Calabar
talks like the Crimson Chin. Yeah, that's awesome.
That's a great thing. Darth Sasquatch with the
Fiverr. Dommy Mommy. Celeste Johnson just wants
everyone to be their truest self and feel good.
Real. I did read Sigvald's book lately, so you
know that's the theme of that book. Is that Budget
Fulgrim? No. Fuck you, yeah. Wait, what's his
name again? Sigvald the Magnificent. Sigvald
the Magnificent. He's so beautiful that he hovers
across the freaking ground. The ground's not
worthy of touching him. He floats an inch off
the ground. His armor is self -cleaning. But
Kevin Bishop voices him. I don't know who that
is, but he's got a nice voice. Good for Kevin
Bishop. He plays a good Sigvald. Yeah. I saw
that in the trivia. I was like, what? I still,
Aletha Nara being voiced by Dylan Sprouse is
still the one that throws me. It's like, no running
in my nagareth. The more handsome version of
Mr. Beast and me. Angry homunculus. Thank you
for the five. Theoretical. Brother, we need to
talk. Practical. Gilman. By the way, do you guys
have any idea why the book says the Avenging
Sons are alt -founding? Andy? Sorry, I was distracted.
Why the Avenging Sons are alt -founding. They
shouldn't be. Avenging Sons are 17th founding.
Ultima founding, I guess, is what he's referring
to. Yeah, but the Avenging Sons are 19th founding,
so they're not Ultima founding. That might be
a mistype. There might be. That Warhammer is
enormous and people forget things. He's right.
It does say Ultima founding right here. They're
wrong. There's multiple mistakes in this book,
I'm telling you. Who has more retcons? Games
Workshop or Shakti's death? Or Shakti. It is
the Sarlacc pit with a Starkiller. Dark Shlong.
Dragon Shlong. Sorry. For five bucks. Counting
Felix. Features pretty heavily in the new Call
book. He does, yeah. Felix is in a lot. He's
in all the Dark Imperium stuff. And I don't know
about Dawn of Fire much because I haven't really
delved very deep. I'm just glad he found some
work after the end times. Declan Gray. 1185.
Thank you for being a member for 10 months. Give
a man Excel and he shall take back 500 worlds.
That's right. Can you say that name again for
me? Yeah, I was going to say. Go back. Say it
again. Declan Gray. There you go. I didn't even
know you said Declan. Declan. It was like a robot
invaded Eli's soul for a second. Declan. Hello,
Declan. Oninata with the five bucks. Acheron,
Die Filthy Xenos, Gene Steelers. This isn't the
tabletop nerd. Acheron, Surprise Pikachu. I'd
say it'd probably be better for them on the tabletop
than in the lore usually because their lore is
usually and then they died. It was like probably,
I don't know, a few dozen Space Marines versus
A million G -Steelers. Captain Akaran, I can
only spare two fucks about your death. It's okay.
Absolutely fine. Have a good day. You cannot
spare enough men, though. Joe Pippin. Ten bucks.
They only had room for one Black Ultramarine
per squad, so they had to kill Ky Rondo and the
old veteran Black Space Marine. Yeah. Sad would
have loved to see Chiron fight wordbears. That's
what I mean. They're fighting wordbears in one
of these Tetras too. It was right there. But
no. We paid a lot of money to Blur Studio to
make that animation. We can't put Chiron in the
saddle. You know they plan stuff usually like
three years ahead. So Space Marine 2 came out
and then a year later these models were already
here. Which means they basically, I think they
obviously planned Chiron's death ages ago, but
they were like, because they basically were like,
we're going to make a model for this guy. Maybe
see who people like more. I mean, you know, I
don't want to, I never want to say like, you
know, kowtow to the audience that much, but like,
I don't know, maybe give it a bit, let it simmer,
see what some reaction, I don't know. We missed
Drakenslong's first super chat, by the way. Did
we? Yes, it's important. Let me see if I can
find it, because usually it stars them, so they're
all in a nice little bunch. This one here? Yes.
Thank you for the $5. I'm down 40 % on my pancreas,
but I'm still not diabetic. Get absolutely ratioed,
Colin. Also fairly certain my surgeon was Fabio's
bio. Well, Fabio's bio does do a good job. Could
have been worse. I hope you the best. And, you
know, it could have been shockwave doing the
surgery. I hope we all hope that went well. Been
praying for you, bro. Yeah. Wasn't it? Was it
today? There was some crazy news about the. Oh,
well, a fellow has cured pancreas cancer or something
like that. Really? Yeah. Amazing. Crazy shit.
Fellow with a birthmark on his face. And he was
Spanish. Yeah. And he's like, hey, I'm just like,
hey, cancer. Take that. Like, well done, you.
Good man. Can I help you? Dog, dog, dog, dog,
dog, dog. Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog.
We have dogs, people. Maybe. Maybe. All right.
What am I talking about? I guess it's just time
to get back into the 500 world. Should I cover
Gadas quickly? Oh, yeah. And then I'm going to
go for a week because I'm busting. So Valorum
Gadriel, his real name, Valorum Valorum, was
the sergeant of the second company. He's a junior
to Captain Sebastian Akran before he died. And
so he was like, oh, I'm like on the up and up.
I'll be lieutenant one day. And then Kyron's
like, yo, I'm lieutenant before you. Dead. That's
a bit of a shame. El Bozo. Yeah. And he was just
like, okay, I'm leading one of the battle squads
of Second Company. And then Titus comes out of
nowhere from the Death Watch from being seconded
for ages. And he's like, no, I'm in charge now.
This is my house. akara that's my squad he's
like no step aside you're you're now gonna follow
his orders even though you know you don't know
who he is he's come out of nowhere and he's got
like all these honors and is really like cold
and not chatting with me and telling me about
all of his glorious ultra marring all over the
galaxy So it's worth noting that... Did he fuck
your girlfriend or something? There's a lot of
hate coming for this guy. Well, we all know that
space marines are virgins unless they're Lucas
the Trickster and Aryak Rockfist. Only space
wolves have sex. It's part of the Canis Helix.
It's part of their lore that they're like, we
can be adults and be turned into space marines.
They're like, I have seven kids. Fair play, mate.
Although Lucas is probably more like seven generations
of kids. But the point is, He's resentful of
Titus coming out of nowhere and just taking his
company when he's like, hey, I'm a glory hound.
I'm all about getting progression, becoming maybe
a captain one day. Not very happy with that.
He tries to kind of kiss his ass and engrace
himself during the Kodaku deployment of the Residious
campaign. He's just like, hold on. Sir, you were
in the Death Watch, weren't you? Yes. And that's
the conversation. So why don't you want to love
me? And it's like, because you're a nerd, Gadriel.
And fundamentally, he's very rigid in his adherence
to the Codex Astartes. He thinks that Titus's
tactics are a bit too unorthodox and strange
for him to be a party of. This feels awfully
familiar. Yeah. Very original character. And
so he's very wary of Titus. They uncover details
about Project Aurora. which if you played Space
Marine 1, that was the whole chaos plot which
Titus was involved with, which cost us the life
of a real sergeant, Sergeant Sedonis. Rest in
peace. And basically, they get to Avarax. He's
becoming ever more flagrant in his disobedience
to Titus. He has like a hissy fit. Then he confronts
him in the astropath chamber of Naoma. And then
he's pointing the gun at... Titus' face. He was
accused of being a heretic, we should say. You're
a heretic, sir, and I think you're a stupid idiot.
He's like, stop that, you idiot. I'm an actual
character. And then Chiron stops it in its tracks,
shooting Naoma, and it reveals that it's Chaos,
Sorcerer of the Thousand Suns. So then Gadriel's
like, sir, I've been an absolute bellend. I'm
so sorry. I hope that you'll forgive me. And
he's like, Gadriel, stop being a tosser and help
me fight chaos. And they fight chaos. I think
we downloaded the wrong film, guys. Why are they
taking their clothes off? Yeah, they kiss. It's
like that old artwork where they're doing dancing
with a rose in the teeth. They redeploy to the
cemetery world of Demerium and then Imara...
basically is like i'm going to do a big plot
they foil the plot um they win the day chaos
is defeated the tyranids are defeated yay recidious
campaign is over titus is promoted to um not
promoted but he's given the laurels of victory
then he's sent off to secret level with motoris
under the advisements of leandros who we don't
talk about in this podcast and um That leaves
Acheron in a bit of a bind because he doesn't
have a lieutenant. So Chiron, you can be my lieutenant.
We're going to go take out these gene stealers.
I'm sure that will go well. And essentially,
we don't know what's happened beyond the end
of Space Marine 2 to 500 worlds. But what we
do know is that Gadriel is now part of Titus's
elite command squad. And he is promoted to the
rank of an Ancient. And Ancients are not necessarily...
Yeah, they get to hold a banner. They're banner
bearers. And to a Space Marine, a banner is like
one of the cream of the crop, best relics you
ever get in your chapter. So only special people
get to carry them. In Hell's Reach, there's the
whole thing with Artarian. It's like he has to
sacrifice one hand to keep my banner aloft, which
makes him a target because everyone's shooting
at you because you've got this big freaking banner.
And you also have one less hand to use. a gun
to use a chainsaw like you have to pick your
options so it's a risky business and gadriel
is like one of the the absolute youngest ancients
ever promoted to that rank no but it's it's like
it's a title not it's about it's not age it's
about pedigree and you have to be very brave
to be an ancient you have to be very disciplined
and i suppose titus saw gadriel and was like
well you're a stickler for rules You're all about
the Codex Astartes. You're going to be really
good in this position. So I would ask Chiron,
but he's dead, and you're my less favorite brother.
So I guess you can have the position. I don't
know. I'm making up my own law here, but I also
think that it's completely true. So you can debate
me on that. And now he is the Ancient of Titus,
and he carries his banner. cool good and also
his new artwork he looks like he's fallen down
a flight of stairs i have no idea if you look
at the new artwork of him it's the fact that
it's also like someone took a photo of him mid
-conversation so his face is like it's like he
was mid -conversation when you took that like
that wasn't his like resting face that was like
that was like the equivalent of taking some taking
like like when i take pictures of hal we're on
holiday eating a sandwich and he looks at me
That's what they did to Gadriel. Which is a shame.
When just me and Andy are on holiday, by the
way. Yeah. When we're on our little escapades
on our own. What was the word? Sex mood? No,
when you get married. We were a low thing. There
you go. We were a low thing. For the visa. For
the Channel Islands visa. I have dual citizenship.
But yeah, anyway, so that's Gadda's. And then
we've got Motorus. Motorus is cool. He was in
Secret Level, his premiere. So he's like, by
virtue of that, one of the crispest looking space
marines ever, because it's like, look at those
graphics. Ooh, you can see every pore in his
cheeks. And this guy basically mentored Titus
from when he was an itty bitty boy. And he noticed
from the outset that there's something strange.
...about Titus. He, for some reason, has an uncanny
ability to resist chaos. He's not scared ever.
He never backs down. This guy's going places.
So he goes, okay, I'll mentor you. And he mentors
him until basically before Space Marine 1. He's
a veteran sergeant even to this day. He kind
of keeps that position. So maybe he's one of
these space marines who's like, I don't want
to be like a command guy. I know what I'm about.
I'll just stay a sergeant. And they're like,
fair enough. And he's a veteran sergeant, so
you know he's got his... his hours in him and
Titus have the same amount of command studs.
So they're both, they're both over like 200 years
old. And a lot of people would be like, wait,
hold on. Titus calls him old man. How come there's
such a little difference in time? And I'm like,
bear in mind, warp shenanigans with time travel.
When you're a space Marine age works differently.
We don't know when motorists was inducted as
a space Marine. I don't know. It's probably a
lazy oversight for a bit. yeah well yes and you
also know titus has little kids so maybe that's
why yeah and and it's it's like i mean i'm only
a few years older than eli he calls me unc so
yeah exactly um but we but we do know that um
he he liked titus he he over he overcame the
rubicon primaris from a firstborn uh he's a blade
guard veteran like in space marine 2 And basically,
he's reunited with Titus after a very long time.
And bear in mind, Titus was captain of his company.
Then he went missing because of the Inquisition.
Then he was seconded to the Death Watch. Then
he did the Residious campaign straight away.
So Matouros hasn't seen him in ages. And then
he's like, oh, here you are back again, my Padawan.
And it's all like, oh, Mr. I'm a lieutenant now,
I outrank you. But he's like, you can tell in
the animation, they're not talking, they're not
looking at each other. There's bits where they
descend on this planet called Za 'ui. It's a
weird name. Za 'ui. Alongside brothers Ikaron
and Levantis to destroy a Sinch cult that's like
around this shrine of some sort. The chapter
deems it threat level absolute. So it's like,
you ain't coming back from this more than likely,
which is why our boy, the chaplain was like,
hey, Kalgar, I know Titus has kind of absolved
himself of all of his sins in the Residious campaign.
Maybe you should send him on this suicide mission
just to be sure. Like, okay, Leandros, you rat,
you rat. since they're reunited, they haven't
seen each other in ages. Matoris is a bit wary
of Titus. He's very brash in the mission. He's
taking chances. And he's dragging this thing,
this sarcophagus, through this battle zone. And
there's a point where he lets it go, and then
Matoris gives it back to him and is like, hey,
you may outrank me, but I'm in command. Do as
you're told, young 'un. And they drag this gnoll
casket with a psyker inside to this sinch shrine.
The Psyker then casts like a psychic bubble to
prevent the defender, the Lord of Change or whatever
it is, the demon that's protecting the shrine
from attacking the Astartes in unconventional
ways. So then the demon goes, hey, that was fun.
Chucks a big spear at the Psyker, kills him,
breaks the bubble and then kind of like freezes
them in place. The demon knows that it can't
like claw its way through their armor because
it's not that kind of demon. So it goes, okay.
I'm going to attack you in your mind. I'm going
to find the one thing that you're weak to, that
you're worried about, that you're nervous about,
that you're fearful of, and then I'm going to
kill you. I'm going to kill you inside your armor.
So the other two veterans die from the first
company, or the guys with the white helmets.
And then it gets to Metaurus, and his fear is
Titus. And he looks at Titus, and he's a boy,
then he's a man. that he's in startes and then
he's like a chaos of startes and he's like the
reason he's so resistant to chaos is maybe one
day he's destined to become some powerful chaos
lord and so the demon goes that'll do and manages
to wound him by the the like shadow of titus
stabbing him in the gut and then it tries to
attack titus and titus goes the hell are you
doing in my skull get out of here this is my
brain this is my mind and then just like grabs
the demon in his own psyche. Then when it tries
to escape into the real world, he jumps after
it and like cuts it in half with like a combat
knife. Pretty cool scene. Gets splattered in
like goop, like fluorescent goopy. And yeah,
then Matoris is obviously injured. The other
two Astartes are dead. Titus is like, right,
we've killed the demon. Our guys in orbit with
their strike cruiser can destroy the temple.
I'm going to drag Matoris out because he's my
adoptive dad, basically. And Matoris is like,
hey, we're going to die here. And he's like,
not yet, old man. And he walks off. It turns
out he managed to save Matoris because he's in
500 worlds. He's still a veteran sergeant. Now
Titus is reinstated as captain of the second
company. And Matoris, I assume by what we see
in the trailer, has cast off any doubts about
his protege. He's now like, yeah, he's incorruptible.
He's my man. I've got his back. I'm going to
be there. That's my man. That's my boy right
there. And yeah, that's Matoris and Gadda's.
I like Matoris. He's fun. He has an axe. Sexy
power axe. Pretty nice models. Yeah. Why do you
like Victrix Guard? Why is Ultraman known for
axes? i know their um honor guard has them yeah
so maybe that's down to um what's his name in
the horse hair i see um their captain well not
captain but you know the guy in charge of the
honor guard what's his name i've done a video
on him as well drake drakis travis in harris
i think a few of them end up dying don't yeah
but this is the guy who's like the bodyguard
of gilman even in his like short story he's like
bodyguard of primark that's a superfluous job
title It scares my brain. Yeah, well, that guy,
he's got like an axe. He kind of looks like a
guy who goes to football in the UK. He's got
like a short haircut and he's just like, I protect
the Primark. Got a problem, you mug? I'll get
you. Your finest chips swimming in liquid ketchup,
please. That's bloody lovely. really nice why
does warhammer hate hammers says trippy imp so
true so true thunder hammers were unusable like
an addition to go to it is pretty unbelievable
nobody got a hammer they bring it back for grey
knights in 11th because i need to be able to
let me equip my sergeant with a thunder hammer
at least brah not all just be nemesis weapons
that all do the same thing come on yeah that
would be real nice but Anyways, as far as 500
Worlds go, we get one campaign that we get some
lore on, and it's kind of whatever. But actually,
it's mostly about Necrons, so that's exciting.
So we have the Heliodress system. Look at that.
And there's a Terran 10 -year -old coming in,
and there's Nova Magner over here. I know I've
said that right. I keep saying it wrong. Yeah,
Nova Magnor. and titus being in the death watch
so he knows sees that the tyranids are avoiding
nova magnor and so he knows because he's in the
death watch the book makes sure to tell you more
than once that uh there's necrons there because
he's in the death watch so he knows so he goes
to check it out tyranids are obviously leaving
when titus and his pals get there in his sleep
show up a big tomb ship it doesn't actually say
the class i don't think but we can assume canon
class big tomb ship rises up from the planet,
and is damaged and weird, and is not actually
attacking them. It tries to fan off things close
to it, but it's not attacking. So Titus, in his
foolish, mortal, fleshling arrogance, decides
to board the ship, which causes all the problems
to come. But he boards the ship. There's no fighting,
really, to be done, other than sweeping aside
what little remains on the ship of Canoptix,
and then he kills the lord there. It's a South
Tech lord. with his honor guard and they're guarding
this strange big device and he just says we should
just blow it up and uh archmegos or whatever
oct says no we shouldn't we should bring it back
home because it might blow up everything if we
blow it up here uh and he listens to the mechanicus
person uh even though he doesn't trust him but
they bring it back then they go touchdown on
the planet he gives the device to oct and ox
goes off and freaks off in some random little
shrine it's a tech shrine and starts studying
it um so that's that there's also been reports
on nova magnor of boom worlds rising up by the
ground and causing all these catastrophes but
there's not actually much fighting going on there's
nothing super scary super big happening so uh
they make planet fall Titus hops to listen to
one of them. He listens to Gajero and says, we
should attack right now. Instead of the other
person who is just one of the characters. It
doesn't really matter. One of the other characters,
I think one of the mortals says, we should get
some theoreticals before we go into the practical.
So we should study everything that's going on.
But they don't. They just go down there. Titus
orders reconnaissance missions while they do
that. They go to Site Umbra, which is the main
tomb world that came out of the ground. And he
decides, we're going to bring in a vortex bomb.
We're going to blow up this whole main site.
Because there's other sites that have satellites
coming up and some other ones around the world.
But this is the primary one. So if they can blow
this up, then the whole world will be over and
everything will be okay. So they bring this vortex
bomb into this tomb world. Sorry, this tomb complex.
The actual planet Nova Magna is a tomb world.
Rightfully owned. By the Necrons. They're on
Necron territory. 60 million years ago. They
go in there. And it's a strange sight. There's
not any Necrons to fight. There's canoptics cast
and strewn about. Doors are blasted open. The
walls are pulsing with a strange sickly light.
And a bunch of Necron warriors. Necrons in general.
Are hanging out of their caskets. Or laying on
the ground. And they're also flickering with
this strange light. But none of them are getting
up. None of them are actually fighting. They
make it all the way down. to the center of the
tomb world where there's like hundreds not thousands
of warriors just lying on the floor here there's
a big giant pillar thing in the middle and he
thinks that'll that's that's ought to be the
uh the main place i'm gonna go blow up the vortex
bomb there there's some tech priests with them
as well because they can only activate the vortex
bomb with tech priests because space brains don't
know how to do that they can't talk to the machine
spirit like that so they start walking they get
halfway there and unbeknownst to them they were
being watched this whole time what a surprise
And six Hexmark destroyers phase in out of their
oubliettes in bright flashes of light and start
pistolling and killing everybody. The Space Marines
start fighting back. And then Ophidians show
up and start slicing the Space Marines. And then
the Space Marines fight back some more. And then
Scorpack destroyers show up and start chopping
up Space Marines. And the Space Marines fight
back some more. This is a recurring theme for
the entire campaign. The Space Marines fighting
back more is their main job in this. And so the
Space Marines push forward as best they can.
They're almost in the center. Gadriel and Metaris
and Titus are with their blade guard. They have
the tech priest in tow and the vortex bomb. There's
only one tech priest left. And then out of the
smoke, a green beam disintegrates the tech priest
and then kills the blade guard. And Necrosaur,
Mentar, the cruel new Necron guy, a new character,
shows up and starts killing everybody. Now there's
no tech piece left, so they have to abandon the
bomb because they can't blow it up. So they have
to retreat. A squad stays behind. Squad Gaius,
I think it is, stays behind to sacrifice himself.
Necrosaur Mentar kills all of them. They get
to a bridge. Another squad stays behind, and
the Necrosaur kills all of them because he's
pursuing them. And they're having to fight their
way up the tomb world. And they finally get out
and evacuate on the Thunderhawks that were waiting
for them. And as they're evacuating, Titus is,
of course, the last one on. He stays on the ramp
and he's watching down and he can see the Necrosaur
staring up at him from the entrance of the tomb
world. And even as the Thunderhawk ramp closes,
he can still feel the eyes of the Necrosaur gazing
through straight into his soul, that type of
thing. So they have failed their mission and
about half of the strike force was slain in this
fight. Not as much as the Necrons wanted to,
actually. Still a massive failure, though. Half
is still pretty good. Yeah. How he still manages
to pull anything off, I don't know. Just believe
it, bro. Just believe it because it happens.
We're at an hour. We should probably read some
more donations, me thinks. I think there's just
a couple. Yeah. There we go. We're getting there.
The first one from Zyko the Psycho. for two.
I won't lie, Colin, the short beard works. Thank
you very much. I do need to trim up the neck
a bit. The neck beard's a little... The beard
is not long enough to where the neck beard is
just the beard. So I'll definitely get a trim
up down here, but I do kind of like this length.
What a nice thing to say to Colin. Thank you.
What a nice chatter. This will keep me going
for the next three months of hate speech against
me. You feel about ever going strong tash, Colin?
I don't know what that means. Like, just, like,
stronger, like, shorter beard, but, like, you
grow out of the tattoo. You look like an American
Civil War general. Look. You know, I, briefly,
I'm not sure how that would work. I'd probably
keep it, like, similar length, at least around
here. I think you should give that a go. I could
be quite... There's a part where you start to,
when you guys are getting older, and then it
starts to be like... it's time to mustache for
no reason it does feel strange having a longer
beard than colin for once i'm like uh i want
to see him with the gotrek beard again i saw
a guy at home depot the other day uh he had a
mustache it was like thin and it went like literally
this high like this like two straight like two
hairs just like this high it's crazy a lot of
wax uh sykes 12 14 6 thank you for the two still
nothing on sisters battle very sad i actually
I wanted to do a sisters episode and then we
just did. I don't really know why. I read the
Fire and Flame. What is it called? The first
Sister Mary book. It's one of the best 40K books
I've ever read. It's actually extremely good.
So we do need sisters. I have done a recent video
on Morven Val, because I read her new book. The
only trouble with that book is that the villain's
more compelling than the main character. It's
a Night Lord's called The Death of Saints, and
he's like, I kill living saints, and they don't
come back. You're like, okay. And then it's like,
oh, he's dead now. Oh, okay. Many such cases.
There was a fun Night Lord's character. He wanted
to write, and then he got roped to do something
else. Yeah, bananas. 1476. Collan. That's the
worst one so far. What's your favorite battle
mech? And what's your walk -on song for it? You
can't go wrong with an Atlas. It's a very basic
choice, but it's a classic for a reason. What's
the walk -on song for it? Iron Man. Respectable.
Very fitting for a man piloting a mech. That's
my walk -on song. Thank you for the five. Necrosaur
looking up at Titus blasting spooky scary skeletons.
Yes, he is. Necrosaur is a goat. Shivers down
his spine. Damn. The model is nice. Hello Zenon.
How will you read the Carcharodon's trilogy?
It's good, isn't it? I'm two thirds in. I've
just started. I'm trying to decide whether to
do a Trazen or a Carcharodon's video after my
current one I'm working on. We'll see. If there's
any Necron with a British accent, I could imagine
Trazen with one. I always imagined him a bit
more like, not like British, but as in he has
like a more, I don't know, like I'm thinking
like an actual Egyptian or something, or something
a bit more eccentric. To be fair, Trazen's been
voiced twice. He's in the Hammer and Bolter series
and he's in Battlefleet Gothic, and both times
it's like, hello there, it's me. My name's Trazin.
I'm a bit of a fucker. Oh, okay. Hello, Trazin.
I'm gonna be a cheeky, cheeky -breaky. We got,
uh, we got one more donut as we want to read
it before we go on. Oh, okay. Thank you, Darth
Sasquatch. Thank you. Would Cass win if Gilliman
and Horace traded places in the heresy? Probably,
but maybe not. I mean, he's... Chaos lost because
you couldn't control half of your forces. It's
a debuff. Yeah, it's kind of, you know, you trade
a little bit better at logistics and whatnot
for he still has to wrangle a bunch of morons.
It's like the idea of, it's like meth strength.
You know? Yeah. You strictly hit harder. But
you are. You will not last as long. So stupid.
Meat Melon 1476. I have a question. No, it's
my question. Get your own. Thank you. Is that
more or less the lore of 500 Worlds? There's
more. The campaign has an edge to it. You really
believe that the Ultramanes would lose? You silly
fellow. You really believed that they would end
up on a loss? I'm sorry, Papa. Set me right.
Where's the cane? Set me right. I like the direction
that's went. Titus goes back, talks to the governor,
hangs out at the command table. There's more
attacks happening all across the planet now.
More tomb worlds rising up. And because he's
part of the Death Watch, don't forget, he was
in the Death Watch. Titus can tell. that these
Necrons aren't fighting like regular Necrons
because he was in the Death Watch. Don't forget.
And so he sees that these Necrons are like weird
and kind of disorganized and not fighting in
the regular robotic fashion that Necrons do.
Guys, I think Titus was in the Death Watch. Yeah.
They're murderous and weird and like bloodthirsty
almost. There's also reports of a big spooky
scary robed figure with a scythe going around
and killing everybody. So the Nightbringer Shard
is here. So that's pretty cool. So maybe we can
cut over to the Necrons, the cool guys, the Necron
side of things, and we'll talk about the new
character, Necrosaur, Ementar. Got his box back
there, but his model's not in my house right
now. It's in my buddy's house because we were
playing again. His model's tiny, by the way.
His model's like as big as his cup. And he's
supposed to, he has a, like in his artwork, he
has a whole freaking space marine in his hand.
But a space marine's like this big. Ementar's
like that big. it's that Keanu Reeves meme where
it's just him on the EA in the E3 stage and there's
the little one next to him like yeah that's the
model version so Amantar is a very unique new
character who would have thought yeah yeah a
unique new character pretty cool in my opinion
he is a he's an OG Necron he's kind of he has
the OG Necron mindset where he's like a actual
like a tan believer And a Catan worshipper. He
wants to unite the Nightbringer Catan shards.
To bring them all together. To recreate and reform.
As a Grodd the Nightbringer. Because he believes.
Or it believes. It's not even like a thing anymore.
It's just an it. It's like an animal. Believes
that the Nightbringer can scour the entire galaxy.
Clean of life. And that this is the most efficient
and best way. To get rid of all biological life.
Because if it wasn't kind of obvious. The Necrosaur
is. like the epitome of the destroyer curse the
destroyer virus he is one of the if he's i guess
he's the only really the only necron who has
the destroyer curse but still has his intellect
it still knows what's going on most sometimes
it loses itself but it can still think and function
and command things unlike most destroyers and
it's pretty cool necrons around it kind of get
just turned into destroyers almost immediately
it's really hard to resist the urge When he's
around, when he lands on planets, like the Tomb
Worlds themselves get infected by the Destroyer
Curse and the Tomb Worlds start to go crazy and
they take all the citizens of the Tomb Worlds,
sleeping or awake, and forcibly turn them all
into Destroyers and modify them to be Destroyers.
So entire worlds get infected by the Destroyer
Curse whenever the Necrosaur shows up. The Necrosaur
claims to hear the whispers of Azagarad so he
can find... the Catan Shards of the Nightbringer.
No one knows if that's true or not, but he does
have a weird knack for being able to find these
Catan Shards, which I guess I won't spoil it.
We all know where this is going, maybe, but he's
really good at finding these Catan Shards and
reawaking them. And it has a big collection of
them, basically. A big Pokemon collection of
Azogarods, of mini Azogarods, which I don't think
I mentioned this in the Necron episode, because
I don't think I knew this before, but the Nightbringer,
at least, has a swarm of canoptics going around
it all the time, repairing its necrodermis because
it's so unstable that the necrodermis is constantly
breaking. So that's a cool little fact, I guess.
Now, as I said, the necrosaur is a big destroyer
guy, so he forces a destroyer on everyone else
around him. He's very good at killing things.
It's very good at killing things. Unsurprisingly,
it's not quite as good as a commander. It has
moments of lucidity, and that's when its oblivion
court kind of gets together, and they discuss
what the plan is, what they're going to do. I
don't know, it's Oblivion Court, has a couple
of characters in it, like the Scorpec Lord, Nez
Farada the Flayer, there's Nemesaur, Anhutek
is the lady, and she's been resisting the Destroyer
madness, trying to be the Amateur's right hand.
There's lots of Cryptex who follow him around.
The Necrosaur gets these Cryptex to keep modifying
its body to be better at killing things. Very
Destroyer -esque. No one actually knows the origins
of the Necrosaur, but it's kind of supposedly
always been a myth to the Necrons. And most of
the Necrons don't believe that the Necrosaur
even exists. He's the boogeyman. He's the Necron
boogeyman. It's pretty cool. Everyone's scared
of him. Anyone who's met him doesn't want to
go near him. They're very scared of him because
he'll make them the destroyer into the destroyer
virus. Wanting to reawaken the Catan and bring
the Catan back is like an ultimate heresy that
it's like literally repugnant. the rest of the
necrons they think it's insane they think that
the neck that if you bring the nightmare back
it's just gonna kill every all the other necrons
as well there'll be nothing left i think there's
like a thing in here that says neck the necrosaur
is fighting for a silent galaxy that's pretty
cool yeah he's pretty cool i like the model i
like the character i wish i wish the model was
bigger um but yeah the necrosaur and its little
little big war bandits increases and gets bigger
and bigger everywhere it goes they go through
a lot of portals from tomb worlds to tomb world
they kind of just like leave behind their crap
they don't care about keeping their tomb ships
and stuff they just go the fastest way they can
and again they're just seeking out these katana
shards it's like a crusade it's they call it
a crusade in this book actually uh flayed ones
follow it around it's like a shepherd for flayed
ones doesn't mind being around flayed ones which
every other necron hates the flayed ones so it's
pretty cool it's pretty cool So anyways, when
the Necrons saw the Space Marines coming, they
planned out this ambush. The Necrosaur had a
little bit of lucidity, so they talked about
it. And they were really hoping that they would
kill all the Ultramarines when they showed up
to this little tomb complex, because they knew
more would come, and more had been contacted.
Like, there's a squadron of the Fourth Company
guys out somewhere that are going to come reinforce
them. But the Nemesaur had no idea how hard the
Space Marines would fight. And she was very surprised
when half the Space Marines survived because
they fight so hard and are so resolute. And they
always make it out of the bad things. So that
was a little bit frustrating for them. So anyways,
now there's Tomb World, Tomb of Alexis going
up all around the world. Crazy fights are happening.
The Nightbringer showing up is very desperate.
Everyone's dying. Titus sends in some Space Marines
to go fight on the front. But the Nightbringer
just kind of kills all of them and then leaves.
So he brings all the space marines back while
all the mortals are trying to hold off on these
multiple different sites. And curious enough,
the Oct, the Archimagus, is not committing any
of his Admech forces and has been locked away
in this shrine studying this strange artifact,
which Oct believes there's an angel of the Omnissiah
locked away in this artifact. And he's been praying
and praying to the Omnissiah. that he may be
able to open this, and he finally realizes there's
someone on the planet who can open this to do
the Omnissiah's will, and it's Nemetar can open
this thing to unleash the Angel of the Omnissiah.
Obviously, we know what's in there now. But that's
cool. He goes crazy, basically. So, Titus realizes
this is crazy, we're so screwed, but... I'm not
going to leave. Titus could leave, and that would
be the better choice, to be honest. He could
have left, waited for reinforcements, then attacked
again. But he didn't want to. He didn't want
to leave the Nova Magnorians by themselves. He's
the defender of Ultima. Why be part of the 500
worlds if the Space Marines won't even stick
around to help you? So he's very, very noble,
very good to do that. So there's two other tomb
complex sites around. Wow, I totally forgot the
name. Umbra, around Umbra to satellite sites.
And Titus decides they're going to go through
one of these secondary sites to go down and then
be connected to the main tomb complex because
these ones will be less guarded and there won't
be a bunch of reinforcements spilling out of
the main one, which is, they deduce, again, I'm
pretty sure it's because he's in the death watch,
he just knows, that there's portals in the main
tomb complex and a bunch of... are spilling in
their Zarekin reinforcements because the last
world that the Nemosaurus had was a Zarekin world.
And it's not ruined and terrible, but he's got
cool destroyer stuff. And it does say that every
Necron in the Nemosaurus legions is infected
by the destroyer curse one way or another, including
the vehicles, the vehicles themselves, because
Necron stuff does have machine spirits as well,
more or less. They're very murderous and killy,
and they just run into things. It's pretty fun
and silly. So yeah, Titus says, reinforcements
are coming from down there, so I'm taking all
my space marines, we're going down there, and
we're going to fight. And that's what they do.
He brings Titus, uh, Gadriel, Titus, Gadriel,
Metaurus, go back to fight. Meanwhile, in the
outskirts of First Brand, just a place on this
planet, uh, which is near the Forest Shrine,
by the way, Necrosaur Amentar launches his own
attack. at the same time. Because the Necrosaur
doesn't care about defending stuff, really. He's
just here to find a command shard, whatever happens
to the Doomworld doesn't really matter. At least
to the Necrosaur. So, he goes and attacks, and
the Militia are very hard -pressed and just,
like, slaughtered. The Mechanicus Forests are
nearby. They're not coming out to aid in the
battle. The Governor, she commits her personal
guard to go fight in this battle, and a Baneblade
shows up, and they hold the Necrons off. For
a little bit, at least. And... Yeah. The Necrosaur
kills, basically. That's, like, the aforementioned
Scorpec Destroyer goes and, like, slices the
Baneblade in half, basically, and everyone's
dying. It's cool. The Necrosaur is just a cool
murder machine. He kills, like, the Governor's
elite guard. He kills all the Ogryns. Sorry,
Ogryn fans. They all get slaughtered by this
guy. Oh, my boys. My boys. Meanwhile, Nemesaur...
what is her name an msr and who tech is back
in the tomb in the bottom of the tomb world in
the center plotting there's a little bit of a
guard around this vortex bomb that was just left
there why they didn't just get rid of it i don't
they literally have portals that could bring
it somewhere else but they left it there just
just just to give the space marines a chance
i guess just like just in case the space marines
wanted to show up and take it back i guess uh
they left it there but whatever She's there.
She's trying to stave off the destroyer virus,
so she's a bit distracted. Meanwhile, Adas and
the fellas are coming in through the secondary
place. They fight a bunch of canoptics and warriors
and stuff, but it's not nearly as bad as a battle
as it would have been on the primary one. And
most of the forces are away anyways, going to
assault the shrine. So the fight isn't that bad,
but it's still pretty brutal. They're still brutal
fighting, and then the Space Marines keep fighting
harder, and they push and push and push, and
finally they make it back to Umbra and the underneath
part. They get into the middle area. Titus has
a duel with the Necrosaur, and they're evenly
matched, it says, even though Titus is super
tired and exhausted, but he's just going like
that. He's just going like that. And the Necrosaur
is... Sorry, not Necrosaur. Nemesaur is... doing
pretty good, but then she gets the tug of the
destroyer and kind of overstands, and then Titus
kills her, and it's said that the battle was
desperate and terrible, going pretty badly for
the Ultramarines while this is happening, but
the moment Titus kills the Nemesaur, who just
phases out and reanimates somewhere else, obviously
she's not actually dead, he looks up and the
battle's over, and the Space Marines won, and
everything's okay. So, the Tech Marines... Hooray!
I love it when the Space Marines win. Another
Ultra Dub. Yeah, so he brings the tech marines
with him. They activate the bomb. They run away.
And they get on their Thunderhawks with what
little is left of the strike force. I don't know
if there's an exact number. They lost probably
two -thirds of what they brought, at least, which
is a pretty big deal for space marines. And there
you go. They have successfully bombed the primary
tomb complex, so there's no more Necron reinforcements
coming in. But while this is happening, the Necrosaur
and his buddies breach the... shrine with a bunch
of dooms in the arcs they blow up the door and
when he walks in the necrosaur he finds uh oct
the archmagus kneeling beside this artifact necron
artifact and praying to it and when oct sees
the necrosaur he like begs him he begs him to
open it up the necrosaur puts his hand on his
shoulder and is like being all nice and then
just like throws him into his buddies and they
all tear him apart and kill him and the necrosaur
Takes the artifact and unleashes the Catan Shard
of the Nightbringer. Who would have expected
that? So there's another Catan Shard on here.
Kill some more guys. But the mission's complete.
Necrosaur has better things to do. It was in
a bit of a hurry because the other fronts that
were fighting to get these Catan Shards needed
the Necrosaur elsewhere. So they just leave.
They're all done here. It's all good. All is
well. They take the South Pole portal and just
freak off and it's all good. And yeah, that's
like... I don't think there's much else. I love
that. It's just like a completely bewildered
polar bear. What's going on here? That would
have been good. There's one cool big battle.
The Space Marines do Space Marine stuff. Literally
every Space Marine scene is, and then they fought
harder and they were able to do it. It's not
great. It's not overly exciting lore, but the
new Necron stuff is really cool. If you couldn't
tell, I'm excited about it. And the necrosaur
is a really cool character. And I hope it gets
like a book or something. Surely they'll do some
500 worlds books. I hope that the necrosaurs
just keep like, keep matching up and fighting
because now the necrosaurs on other places in
the 500, 500 worlds causing problems. There's
like a, there's a little picture in here. I think
they're fighting the death guard somewhere, I
guess, because there's a picture. Yeah. There's
a picture of the necrons fighting the death garden
here. And then like, nothing else to say about
it. It says they're in the depths of Jawardet's
sub -levels between Shambling Whores, blah, blah,
blah. Yeah. Wherever Jawardet is, they're fighting
the Deathclaw. Remnants of the Godblight, you
know, Plague Wars. Yeah. Yeah. That's it. At
least it doesn't sound like the Imperials, like,
and then they walked in and then they won every
battle and then it... I know that actually costs
lots of resources and lives to even get a stalemate.
Yeah, the Necrons actually won. The Necrons got
more than what the Ultramarines did, believe
it or not. Because all the Necrons wanted was
that Catan shard, which Titus literally brought
to him. Yeah. Titus started to get... Yeah, yeah.
Maybe should have just let that poor, innocent
Necron tomb ship leave. I don't know. Maybe they
should have like... Yeah, poor innocent Necron
tomb ship. Those are words. Yeah. You can say
them. Full of enslaved Necron thralls with their
minds obliterated living in an endless hell.
As opposed to imperial ships with poor slaves
whose minds have been obliterated. They get to
enjoy their corpse starch. It's fine. Do servicers?
Do they? Some of them. They have to feed... I
mean, they do have to stay alive somehow. The
flesh still has to stick around. So they probably
do have to feed them one way or another. They
get the Taco Bell of corpse starch. They probably
get an IV type of thing. They just plug into
a machine and it just recharges and puts nutrients
in them. See, that's kind of how I've always
pictured it. Or they have another servitor going
around to the ones jammed in doors with a hole
in the wall. Here comes the train. It's like
that company that made their... It was quite
a few years ago. They used to sponsor the Rooster
Teeth podcast. Gosh, shout out to Rooster Teeth.
It no longer exists. And they just had a protein
shake thing that was supposed to replace meals
and it just ended up looking like a grey... What
was it called? CTRL? I don't know. It's been
so long, but I just remember thinking people,
like loads of fitness people and other people
were like, oh, this is like the new craze. I
remember thinking, what do you mean? So you don't,
like the whole point of eating or something,
the best part is the flavor. You're skipping
the flavor. Bruh. um we could go through quickly
the uh chapters involved in this might as well
i'll list them all off and you can like talk
about them if you want i've got some notes but
still there's the ultramarines the reborn the
size of the emperor the silver skulls the avenging
sons the sons of aurora the nova marines the
praetors of ultramar the doom eagles and the
aquilon brotherhood never heard of those guys
yep well that's the thing i got a message a while
back so i did like all the space ring chapters
And I didn't include a couple of these because
they don't have anything. And then I add a message
to people like, oh, look, the Reborn and the
Aquilon Brotherhood have lore. And I'm like,
no, they don't. And they have a logo, but they
still have like a color scheme. Like, calm down,
calm down. Yeah, yeah. There's like three sentences.
Yeah. As you can see. So, yeah. Well, let me
go through the minor ones first. So like the
Aquilon Brotherhood, Ultima Founding. They have
a veteran called Ixen, who is in the Godblight
series, the Dark Imperium books, who is part
of Tetrarch Decimus' honor guard. They wear white
and blue gold ceramite, and they have a twin
-headed eagle with an Ultima in it as their logo.
That's all they have. Praetors of Ultramar, Ultima
founding. Drawn from the Unnumbered Suns, they
helped defend during the Plague Wars. They come
from a... planet called house bridge they wear
black gold and white armor with a skull and an
ultima within a golden iron halo that's their
law the true reborn or the rebuilt the reborn
i should say the reborn not to be confused with
the reborn warband this is the reborn chapter
they wear blue white armor and they have a skull
of an ultima as their symbol that's their law
Why even make these? Why not just make existing
chapters do these things? They are existing chapters.
That's the depressing thing. They are existing
chapters. They just did the barest minimum to
give them not even CPR or life support. They
put them on a drip and they're still in a comatose.
Like, come on. Legally pronounced dead. Yeah.
Some of the more meh chapters, we've got the
Avenging Sons. They've been around. One of the
comments was like, wait, it says in the book
they're Ultima Foundings. I don't know. They've
been around for a while, but maybe they've retconned
them. I'm not sure. They hail from a world called
Traconis Major, and they wear azure armor with
gold, with an icon, which is a white cross. That's
their lore. Sons of Auror. They wear red armor
with a red Omega symbol. Orror. Orror. Orror.
Orror. That's their name. Sons of Orror. Sick
dog noise. They are a heresy -based chapter.
So one of their founders was from the Ultramarines
Legion. They crunked Craftworld Alatok once.
That was fun. And they have lots of Corvus armor.
classic eldar lore thanks thanks for uh doom
eagles are kind of fun uh they hail from they
hail from the world called the eerie they uh
are nihilistic because they're all like we're
all gonna die anyway and so they're like yeah
they're like late they're ultra marine raven
guard basically and they're like, us knowing
we're going to die means that we just go into
suicidal charges, knowing we're going to die,
so we have a bit of freedom in that regard. And
when they survive, they're like, I guess I'll
try again tomorrow. They're in a few books here
and there as side characters. They're okay. They
wear silver armor, and their icon is a skull
and a stylized eagle. There is a bit more to
them, but this is kind of a brief rundown. I
just realized when I bought Battle of Macragge
when I was a kid, I painted my first ever Space
Marines as Doom Eagles. I just had the codex.
I didn't really understand what was going on.
I was probably too young, but then I just liked
the silver. I used to stare at different armies
being painted up, and I was like, oh, these silver
ones are kind of cool. Damn. Shout out for 20
years ago. Young Hal painting his first Doom
Eagle like, I too stare into the void of death.
Yippee! Yay! My brain did go like, oh, like,
you know, 20 years ago when I was like five,
I was like, nope, I'll be older than that. Oh,
God. Existence is meaningless. Yay, said Hal.
Woo! hey money in the chat says the avenging
sons were a chapter that got destroyed during
the great rift ultimate founding rebuilt them
and they have anger issues because of that poor
thing okay okay okay i feel like i've done assuring
them before kind of like soldiers then yeah uh
just less soldiering because the whole whole
thing oh oh oh avenging sons Tauros. That's what
they're from. Holy frick. Yeah, they're the ones
who get crunked by like... Oh, yeah, yeah. All
of their lore is them getting their ass beat.
That's right. They were in a video I made. They
die at Tauros. I think one of their companies
just leaves a planet under siege by chaos and
joins chaos. Not even because they wanted to,
but because they went renegade and they were
like, well, we're already here. With Ultima being
on the borders of the Tau, they could have a
rematch. They could fight again in a new campaign.
Maybe that'll be a thing someday. Lose again.
Their name is so good. It's like one of his best
nicknames for Gilliman. And yet, like, one of
the dullest paint schemes. We're blue. Blue.
Anything else? Blue and white. No. We suck. And
we're blue. Don't forget they suck. Yeah. It's
very important. And then the last three I have,
we've got the Silver Skulls, who I'm playing
as in the gameplay. They lost their homeworld
of Lyria. They now live on a planet called Varsavia.
They use prognosticator librarians who see into
the future to try and divine best course of action.
Hold on, there's a dog. I must put the dog banner
on. She is whining a bit. Yeah, I hear a little
bit. Do you want to go outside really quick?
Feed the dog. I did feed her. Yeah, she's going
to shit in my house if I don't let her out. Okay,
go, go, go. The Silver Skulls are very devout.
They followed the Varsavian orthodoxy, and they're
totally not what's remaining of Barabas Dantiox's
sons of Dantiox company. Totally not Iron Warriors
success, I promise. Even though their icon looks
like an Iron Warrior skull and they wear silver
armor and they're called the Silver Skulls. Totally
not Iron Warriors, dudes. Promise. Speaking of
not Iron Warriors, Scythe of the Emperor. Secret
Ultraman's 11th company, which when the heresy
ended, they had a secret 11th company when they
put the codex into play and just didn't tell
anyone about it. They'd invented the world of
Sotha, which has the Pharos device. Pharos device,
what Dunn blowed up and brought the Tyranids
to the Warhammer universe and was the last stand
of Alexis Pollux and Barabas Dantioch. They used
Barabas' mask as a badge of office for each of
their chapter masters. They got bodied by the
Tyranids during their invasion because that's
the place where the big beacon in the sky was
lit. And they aided Belisarius' call in forcing
a Catan shard that was stored inside the Faris
device. So that's kind of fun. There's no...
I haven't read that call book. I really want
to. There's no actual OG size of the Emperor
left, right? They're all dead. There's no cool
Genestealer space Marines left? The Genestealer
ones are gone. I believe they go out in glory.
But there are a few sites, because they have
this whole thing with the... The Giant's Coffin,
I believe it's called, where they have a big
last stand on a planet. Kind of like the Crimson
Pists. Crimson Pists? Crimson Pists. This guy's
got pee on the mind right now. I'm already in
slip. What the heck? Yeah, Crimson. Good rotated
piss stain. I know, but they kind of get bodied,
but they kind of survive. There's a few left,
and they're reconstituted with Primaris. And
they're totally not Iron Warriors successes,
even though... they come from the planet with
which the iron warrior defended and they wear
silver and they have you know like and they have
like a and they they worked with like the toilers
of the field of their home world which were like
farmers that's where they have two cross sides
as their logo and then the last one is the nova
marines all you need to know is they are racist
they are racist And they hate abhumans, and they
suck. They're really nice guys to the Imperium,
though, aren't they? I feel like I'm pretty sure
the... What's it? Valdemort loves these guys,
doesn't he? I don't know. But, like, Nova Marines,
long story short, they trained another chapter
called the Angels of Fury from their inception.
They hail from a world called Honorum. They love
the Codex Astartes so much that they go to bed
with it under their pillow every night. They
don't worship the emperor. They're not part of
the imperial cult, but they treat the Codex like
a divine text. So they're like daddy's boys.
They hate mutants. They hate heresy more than
most. Their icon is an iron halo with a skull
in it. Their first chapter master is basically
from this noble house of Ultramar. And so he
was like given up by his noble house. He's like
the Primarch who told the lion to piss off during
Secundus where he was like, oh, you're being
given a laurel of victory. And he just stands
up to the lion. He's like, hey, I'm going to
like give up my oaths because I'm going to swear
new ones. And the lion's like, that sounds cringe.
You shouldn't ever give up an oath. And he's
like, no, mate. I'm giving it up because I'm
going to do a better one. And Gilliman's like,
yes, tell my brother to piss off. That's good
boy. Good boy. Lucretius Corvo is his name. He
kills a Titan. He's pretty cool. But like his
chapter is just like, yeah, bigoted and nasty
pieces of work. They are in the Dark Imperium
trilogy and there are characters, but they are
still like, they're cool, but they're also like
not good people. Gotta be honest. Ain't nobody
like mutants or Xenos in this Imperium Cup. Nova
Marines get tattoos. They do get tattoos as well.
They have cool psychic powers, I think. Like
skinheads. They're just like, yeah, I hate this
person. Oh, Nova Marines, no, stop it. This isn't
American. Everyone hates them Xenos. You're not
wrong with that. Before we get any further, was
there any last few donuts? There are a few. So
the first one is from Zenon again. Can we make
Hal read that trilogy? We have theories. Yes,
he's started the trilogy of Carcharodons. I will
probably not read the third book. As I have heard,
it is aggressively Ned. i've just started it
so i'd have to let you know because i i it does
have interesting things of like it's the first
book where there's primaris carcaradons involved
but we will see i'll let you know eli and hal
will wear green hat 27th february thank you for
two uh cologne how much money to make you play
underworld like warhammer underworld oh it's
like the rpg thing i think i mean i'd play it
like i'm not you know i don't have anything against
it it looks neat i don't know if is that an rpg
i've not looked at it much the models are cool
game maybe it was like it's like a dungeon crawler
almost yeah i don't know it's asia sigmar bro's
got a mortgage now he no longer is interested
in any other financial burdens no i'd be interested
in playing it with the fiver thank you what if
leeman russ landed on planet louisiana instead
of planet viking i i mean i bet he'd be he'd
have some phenomenal uh some phenomenal jambalaya
and some grade a moons we being good we'd be
we'd be you know what i think i'd appreciate
that And then Leman Russ descended to attack
Horus on the Vengeful Spirit. He went, oh, about
to make a name for myself. That's what Leman
Russ did. A lot more happy to hear that. Yeah,
family. Bean. Hello, Bean. Common Ultramedrine.
Ultramedrine. Necron cells. That's right. One
again. Necronsh has. Necronsh has. We stay winning.
We stay winning. I hope that Necrosaur gets a
book. I really hope it does. Exarpset has been
a member for five months. Thank you, brother.
Late to the party. How many Ultra W we got so
far? Never -ending Ultra Ws. Ten -teen. Two losses
and a win, I think. Do we have any theories where
this whole like because bear in mind they're
pairing this with with maelstrom to give like
huron a resurgence um where do we think this
is going to go because like space marine free
is a consideration possibly there's going to
be novels but i don't know i i don't know what
because it's a it's a really strange thing to
have like your premier character in the setting
now quarantined to this 500 worlds game set And
maybe that's just to future -proof him. He can't
die now because he's in this niche within the
setting. But where do we think 500 Worlds is
going to go in the future? Is this going to be
a one -and -done? Or is it going to go on as
a whole separate game set? Do we have any theories?
Maybe they'll make some small side games for
it. I like specialty games. I'd be cool if they
brought those back a bit. I wouldn't be surprised
if it goes nowhere. Not going to lie. Or that.
Or that. There's always that. If we're lucky,
we'll get one or two books. Yeah, I don't know.
Or it'll be once. I don't know. As much as Arcs
of Omen has been touched since that happened.
Yeah. You have to remember, we are talking about
a game manufacturing company. It is an excuse
to bring out some pretty cool miniatures so far.
I don't think anyone has said anything like they
don't necessarily... Obviously, you don't like
every miniature that comes out ever. No one does.
But, I mean, they're looking good so far. And
then some new rules. I think there'll be more
detachments for different groups maybe as each
of the campaign books come out. So there'll be
more stuff like for Eldar in the next one and
then obviously Chaos and other things people
can do. Eli, there's obviously... a few new detachments
available in this current one wasn't there as
well so you get all these goofy little this whole
like wacky uh fancy campaign map in that book
so like maybe maybe i should play that with with
fellows or something i don't know that's kind
of neat my friend just went out and bought um
the new guy the new model um because yeah he's
interested in playing curse legion nice it's
goaded it's cool it's my day one necron stuff
yeah you get like the boarding actions and the
missions the boarding action book is like a whole
rule book too it's quite i don't know weird but
battle necrosaur is real cool and i'm happy that
he exists in general and the new attachment is
freaking awesome i want i was playing like you
see the red there's red necrons back there uh
there we go uh My OG Necron army was a Destroyer
Cult army, but the Destroyer Cult was just so
lame, the Destroyer Detachment, so I just ended
up playing normal Necrons in the end. Now we've
got Destroyers again. Yeah. I mean, I think it's
a good start. And I guess when we... We'll probably
maybe cover the Huron and Corsair one when it
comes out, just because hey, those models do
look good. I like some pirate stuff. The Corsairs
have got some... Yeah, Huron is an interesting
character. Prince Uriel is an interesting character.
I'm sure Colton has already thrown his wallet
immediately at the screen. He's going to buy
it. He's got two banners. You don't have two
banners. I don't. Yeah, awesome guy. Thank you
much. My brain is not in the right place today.
I'm still recovering. We did have we were starting
a new segment recently weren't we which was uh
a miniature like we would choose from the discord
and uh to fair i've got i could go first if the
other guys need um i was going to force that
onto lore crimes without asking anyone and now
i'm not even doing it let me go find that i andy
there's a picture i have chosen uh Let me go
quickly find the guy's name, because this dude
has made some crazy stuff in the Discord. This
guy's an amazing painter, by the way, as well.
There's a record of Mr. Ivar, who's a really
good painter. I've seen you. I've seen you, brother.
Some of that stuff is... I'm getting very jealous.
Have you guys showcased Donkey Man's Chaos Terminator?
Nope. Send it here. Send it over, yeah. Here
we go. Oh, I found my one. I'll get a better
thing for the guys listening. I'll try my best
to describe it for the audio listeners as well.
But I have an offering by a guy named literally
Thor. Put that in the chat for people there,
Andy. That guy's Bacillus Dreadnought, who I
believe he says on his submission that he is
my Dreadnought for the Wild Hunt themed chapter.
The conversion on this is pretty damn nice. Oh
my God. He's put like a little... I appreciate
the Viking knots on... uh leg pieces as well
obviously going on for that classic oh what's
the uh uh leshen that leshen look on the um where
obviously the actual sarcophagus is supposed
to be i believe some of these like look like
they're 3d printed parts because there's like
some flat chain pieces on there on the shoulder
pads that's crazy brother color amazing i don't
even know where you got these antler bits from
uh but that is a very unique conversion because
I don't know anyone else. I mean, it's kind of
space world adjacent, but damn, that's crazy.
I love it. I love a conversion. I do love it.
Yeah. So great job for, and the next one, let
me just, uh, take this one off. Sorry, bear with
me. And then I share the next one. So this one,
Was this your pick, Eli? Yeah, this is Donkey
Man's Skaven stuff. Pretty dang cool. That's
all I have to say. I can see the dreadnought
legs on the bottom and chaos bits for the clawed
feet. I don't know what those are actually from.
I can't remember. It's from a knight. That's
one of the chaos knights. And then there's the
claws from the murder fang. Those are murder
fang claws. i'm quite certain and uh yeah pretty
gosh darn cool mr donkey man keep it up that's
just like like the bait that base is dangerous
to touch like it's so spiked i like this bikes
yeah those chains are from the chaos rhino i
think very nice uh the next one uh let me just
Take this one down. Share this one here. This
one is from Blake115 and it's a Kalgar! I figured
on the day, right? We're talking about 500 worlds.
Let's get Marnius Kalgar here. I do like the
paint scheme. He's fairly nicely painted. There's
some green on the little eagle there too. I like
that little highlight. It breaks it up from the
normal blue and gold. It's Marnius. It's Kalgar.
Hell yeah. The greatest of us all. Look how clean
the edge highlight on his shin is. That's just
a perfect straight line. Yeah. That's brilliant.
Look at that shin. Glory to the Ultramarines.
Glory to HAL looking at feet. The shin is the
foot now. Just one more time. wow marnius kalgar
blocked by debris and rubble and the last one
we're going to pick here from green hat guy it's
an equal lamenta look at him i said this too
he's so small he's so small imagine doing that
heart that would have been a ball lake i mean
bear one it's just like but still it's like the
precision the amount of the amount of Lamenta
is hard to do even on a normal -sized space marine.
This is the flex. I just wish that there were
Xenos armies and it wasn't just horse heresy.
No one's going to do it. Damn it, EW. That is
cool, yeah. Thanks, guys. Some of you guys are
really talented, by the way, because I'm watching
the tabletop one. a lot recently because my god
i'm it keeps me inspired to keep uh first of
all being diabetic apparently thanks for your
love pardon me pardon me dying a little bit don't
worry don't worry about him uh and uh it keeps
me um finishing up army i just got some cactuses
i'm not joking some actual cacti pieces hold
on where are they yes actual cacti pieces for
basic Because I want to keep improving my miniatures
because you guys have some very nice stuff. So
I appreciate it, brother. I appreciate it. Before
we wrap this up, we've also got some other donations
to get through briefly. And Angry Homunculus,
who has been an ember, he's been a member for
eight months. Lehman never folds. No, he does
not. He's been a law criminal for years as well.
Appreciate it, brother. B4509, thank you for
$2. Gilman trained the avenging sons wrong. It's
a joke. Feels bad. ChrisM77 has become a member.
Thank you very much. And the last one. Who wants
the last one? Colin or Hal? My voice, please.
Please let it go. I got it. DarthSasquatch499.
I am looking at the right one. Debate idea. Doomguy
versus Gilliman. I think Doomguy takes that one.
I think that's Doomguy. me too uh colin moore
halo hammer one no but i'm jerking off general
grievous soon i should end the episode before
you say general grievous by the way you are a
bold one good that good that good that one second
more crime short i'm jerking off Oh my gosh.
Thank you all for joining us. Did we have a question
of the week? No, we forgot. Don't worry about
it. We'll do it next time. I have a barely related
would you rather if we want to just get a complete
filler. Go for that. I'll even add Warhammer
into it. Would you rather be an ultramarine And
you have to fight off against a Demon Prince,
an ODST, and you got to fight the Arbiter, or
a Jedi, and you got to fight General Grievous.
ODST fighting the Arbiter. You think you win
that fight? I'm just saying I saw Sergeant Forge
kill the Arbiter once. Yeah, but this is Keith
David Arbiter. Oh, well, you didn't say that.
You said Arbiter. All right, come on now. I can't
bring myself to kill Keith David, I gotta be
honest. He doesn't have the Force, so you can
just run. Bro thinks he's gonna be the guy to
get away from Grievous. General Grievous is like,
yes, Italy. That was Spider. Cruel. I think I'd
choose Jedi as well, maybe. I'm taking Ultramarines.
Maybe actually the Ultramarines one. The Emperor
might save you at the last second, and you might
get that power armor. You could be the equivalent
of Cad Bane. You could be okay. I'm going to
shoot you with my laser pistol. Jedi, stupid
Jedi. There's the question of the week. Pardon
me. We did do one last week, so I've got those
pulled up here. Not to worry. I thought about
that like five minutes ago. I'm like, crap. The,
uh, it was iron within iron without was the hashtag.
Uh, the question. I wasn't there. So I don't
know. No, this wasn't last week. This was, uh,
this was two weeks ago. Yeah. Cause last week
was the guest episode. You weren't here last
week. Yeah. No. Wow. Why am I doing this then?
Were you not here last week? No, wait, no. I
wasn't here. How was it you were there? Well,
there was no question last week. It's riveting
content. As you can tell, people, we are a professional
setup. I'm trying to remember the question. We're
having collective dementia going on right now.
I'm trying to remember the question, all right?
Well, I think it was, what could you do without
in the set? Yeah, yeah, iron with it, iron without.
Yeah, I had the answers. I was trying to just
get the question. I've got to start off with
this one. 26 -year -old geriatric choice. I'm
27 now, all right? I hit upper 20s. I'm still
25. Immediate melting. Blake on Gaming 588 with
the first question of the week answer. Shut up,
diabetes. What could you do without the prices?
Yeah. Thank you. All right, I get it. Holy shit.
Probably worse with the poor USA bros of all
the terrorists as well. Oh yeah, Canada. Feel
worse for us. Feel worse for Canada bros. Feel
worse for Australian bros, actually. They have
the weight. They've suffered the most by far.
For the next one, Raris Pepe. He's got a spicy
answer. A serious answer. Everything from 5th
edition onwards except the Nucrons. 40k already
has the Tyranids so it doesn't need another army
of mindless killers. Though I would still say
that 40k would be better if the Necrons were
the Men of Iron instead of an alien race badly
crowbarred into the backstory. Brother. Wow.
Okay. I'm gonna kill you. With hammers. Silly
answer. Everything you four like because you're
most entertaining when you suffer. Epic. And
then for the last question of the week, from
Angry Homunculus, what would you remove? The
Yanari. What else needs to be said? Just have
it so that Gilman can survive through a combination
of the Armor of Fate and Big E, especially considering
he did it later in Godblight. Didn't GW just
do that recently? Yeah. Basically. At least if
they were gone and erased, it wouldn't be so
embarrassing. Still give Gilman a daughter that
he names Tarasha, because I think it's still
cute. And then... This is not a question of the
week, but shout out to Sparhawkian who just said
bricked. Wow. Appreciate it, brother. I too am
full mast. I have an idea for a fairly cursed...
Oh, sorry. Wow, he's that excited. There was
some damage with that one. I have an idea for
maybe a cursed one for this week where it's like...
when we think about hashtag oh we're not doing
the would you rather well we could do that instead
yeah if you want to do that if you got an actual
question of the week that's better that was just
pure i needed we needed filler all i had the
idea was like maybe we should do hashtag chiron's
like who would you kill off instead of chiron
for the 500 worlds i feel like we've done that
question just like that before maybe would you
rather i'd kill the herpes True, true. We could
just do the Would You Rather then, if that takes
up the thing. Hashtag rather. Hashtag rather.
Done. Professionally run podcast where we never
do anything off the fly. Or are late, etc. Amazing.
Shout out to us. We're great. Best podcast. Thank
you guys for watching, for listening, for the
donations. he's gonna go do that live tv yeah
poor hammer live i just did three episodes on
adric so now it's official we have to end their
run there like they peaked and then we can let
them all i can end there yeah we'll see you guys
next week appreciate it love you guys bye
