Cawl: Allow me to come with my brand new innovations. Mechanicus: HERETECK!! *Guilliman scoffing sounds* Mechanicus: Hrm, I mean, let's just see what he cobbled together...

Methinks someone doing the writing for GW studied Classics.

Tut tut tut, not power armor... MEGA POWER ARMOR!! (Yes, there is a difference) (I’m being sarcastic, I hope you realize.)

tou fucking ché XD

Arch (humble bow) thank you, mr Arch! And yes we might have a disagreement or two on certain primarchs, and some lore, but you are one of the best around and you have helped me get such a better understanding on the Lore, which in turn has just made my love for this franchise, (all 3 aspects in truth) grow more. So, thank you for the videos, and jokes about the chances of “a snow ball shoved up Satans ass”!! 🤣🤣

I'm just glad he got this out of the way, since we all know Cawl's "Primaris Super Cataphractii+" armor will arrive in a month or so.

He's gotta milk that power-armoured teat, dude. Makin' dat monay

And none look more badass than Deathshroud cataphractii scythe wielding silent killers.

Siege Tyrant formation of the Iron Warriors Legion is a great example of that. They carried Cyclone rocket pods on their backs and were designed for breaking sieges. Imagine a group of the them, walking toward the enemy line, slow, but purposeful. A bunker? One rocket and it's down. A pillbox? No more damage than hail. Infantry countercharge? Not even a stepping stone. Flamers? Grenades? Razor wire, mud to the knees, permacreate trenches? All for naught. Stop one with a lucky shot, maybe a demi-squad through concentrated fire, so what? Dozens of them are coming form multiple points, raining precise misslie fire on your lines. And they are coming for you, step after step.

Until we remember that, somehow, Genestealers can stab through Terminator plate.

@@TheGreatThicc So can power weapons. That's why personal distortion fields are a thing. In a world of monomolecular blades, thickness of physical armour can only get you so far.

Its the Worf effect, the best fighter being pummeled to show how much of a threat is being handled... by the actual heroes.

Bad writing is bad.

@@adrenjones9301 *misses a wide open shot to progress the plot*

It happens in Ciaphas Cain a couple of times, but that's usually against something like Genestealers who are quite well known as effective can-openers. The point of it in that case is usually to emphasize how absurdly lucky our Hero of the Imperium is when he survives situations like this.

@@VallornDeathblade it only emphasises that the plot armor of the hero is even thicker than terminator armor.

He just forgot to mention it would be much, MUCH later, lol

@@myownmusic8182 later is like soon .... it is a bendable term. Ranges from "in a few seconds" to "Trust me, for the xth Time, I will do it later!"

Also ads on a Thursday?

@Only Death still many times after deep strike it doesnt matter since you have to make charge using same rolls, also doesnt matter if you decide to be delivered via transport. And 4+ invu is no joke.

Cataphractii armor was the first mass produced best Tartaros armor is still King. It has the balanced speed of the Indomitus and a chunk of the defense seen in the C armor.

Best in filthy green

Hmm wouldnt "the best" terminator armor be the Tartaros pattern Terminator suit? It has all the protection of the indomitus pattern (although less than the Catapractii) with no movement penalty. It's like moving around in normal power armor with terminator plate protection without disadvantages.

Ya because War of Mobility am I right?

Back then they were not the Adeptus Mechanicus. They were the Mechanicum. The AdMech were founded near the end of the HH by the Mechanicum loyalists.

@@lostalone9320 Well, yes, they can be replaced, but in how long? Those lost at Istvaan were full forces of two Legions and the most elite elements of yet another, warriors and outstanding heroes accumulated over two centuries of fighting. When you witness the shattering of a beautiful crystal, you mourn it's loss, not brush it aside because "it is going to regrow eventually".

@@lostalone9320 Yes, but replacing three entire Astartes Legions, gene-seed, wargear, training, and all would take an inordinate amount of time and resources.

That and those Saturnine Terminators, hot stuff!

For me it was the guardsman who combat rolled between the two marines.

That video gave me fetish for Cataphractii

The guards Manticore says "hi".

And that is all before you add in the support from their non termi clad brothers in both infantry and artillery. Oh and I guess the solar auxilla count too, cheaper to have a regular guy eat a round than to fill in the bits of paint that might get chipped off

Used Tactical Dreadnought armour. 1 previous occupant. Ignore the stains, they'll buff right out.

​@@VallornDeathblade Couple minor lascannon holes on abdomen area, perfect job for any DIY admech adept. Machine spirit attitude unknown, caution advised when using personal shield generators. Note: company is not liable any explosions happening for lack of prayers to Omnisiah

I would recommend upgrading to the Aquilon or Allarus pattern, totally worth the price.

All you need is flack armour and faith in the Emperor to best any of mankind's enemies 😉

Disappointing but not unexpected

If they fuck up one of the best novel series I will be so sad. They might as well just not do it

Well how else do you explain 40k to normies ? They have no idea what grimdark is.

@@MrFallenone It's pretty simple... and GW have covered this multiple times in the past: "In the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium, there is only war." Then continue with something like: "The Immortal Emperor sits within a golden throne on the Imperial homeworld of Terra, betrayed by his favoured son Horus he lingers on the border of life and death. Ruling through his proxies, his life essence supports the Astronomican, the psychic light that guides ships through the immaterium beyond reality. The Warp. Beset on all sides by countless hordes of aliens, heretics and daemons, the uncounted Trillions that make up the galaxy spanning Imperium of Man pray to the Emperor for Protection and Deliverance. Resolute, The Emperor Protects with mighty armies of Space Marine, Imperial Guardsman and Naval Forces that patrol the void. Ever vigilant, they stand against the enemies of Mankind. He Delivers Salvation to the masses through His Ecclesiarchy and The Mechanicus, a bureaucracy of religion, priests and spiritual power. Fanatically devoted, they stand ever vigilant against the Mutant and Heretic. He watches over his people through his Adeptus Arbites and Planetary Defence Forces. Imperial police and soldiery, mere men and women tasked with quelling constant surges of insurrection, heresy and criminality. Yet the most feared of his servants fulfill a more secretive role, one entrusted to a select and powerful few, they seek out the most dangerous enemy. The Truth. They are: The Inquisition." *Powerful outro music* There you go. Shove that into a trailer showing scenes from the show and you have access to an audience larger than the "warhammer" crowd without giving them a false expectation that it's "Star Trek". Alternately you can go with some mel brooks. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hLt9nsZzyNqpZ5c.html

Comes stock with Ultramarine insignia.

So sad, as true as it is. I’ll forgive GW if Cato Sicarius loses his plotarmour tho~ 🙃

does your wardian Power armor protect you?

Norbert Drage I CAST FIST

tron 1112 it does

funny when talking about terminator armor don't you think?

I disagree, but after last weeks tribute I cannot deny he deserved a break.

Im just happy that arch doesn't repeat the same thing half a dozen different times in a single video.

youngthinker1 Kaldor Draigo*

@@timhurl1514 Thanks, I'm a might bit touched in the head

Considering it's Draigo we're talking about, he prolly though something loike "NOODLES! THEY ARE WRIGGLING INFINITELY!" I mean, it is Draigo.

Abaddon was pretty big for an Astartes, think he was of similar height to Horus but smaller.

Yes, he was too big for the mass-produced ones (if something so hard to manufacture can be called that), so it had to be made on-demand just for him.

@@phaedrosx Lol, Proto-Primarch Abaddon, huh?

@@darkinnovator2479 More like warhammer deus ex machina Abaddon....

The Saturnine Armor is fricking ugly. Looks like Humpty Dumpty.

@@bumblingbureaucrat6110 Hey, it's fine. This is not the Imperium. You are allowed to be categorically wrong. :)

@@helldrake77777 This is true, you are also allowed to like Humpty Dumpty Armor.

@@bumblingbureaucrat6110 I don't know I think saturnine terminator armor looks pretty slick especially with its interpretation in the death of Hope animation

@@shanelord6036 Hot damn, that animation was slick and that big chunky boi was probably the most amazing hunk of angry Space Marine I've ever seen. Talk about a mountain of ceramite and adamantium. Makes me want GW to do a sculpt for them so I can have a walking bunker of them strolling around the midfield lighting up anything within like 20 inches.

This is the first Mass Produced version though

I think Cataphractii was the Mark III of terminator armour, with 2 older patterns. The oldest one fans have seen dubbed Saturnine.

Cataphractii was likely the first "original" design implemented for mass production and use. Before hand, it was basically modified construction, engineering, and mining exo suits, with weapons platforms bolted on

@Iron Hands Terminator I actually quite like It, some of the updated fan art of it looks cool. So do the suits in death of hope part one

@@dominusbalial835 The fan art actually makes it look pretty good compared to the original MK 1 models. I would love for some bright spark to make some printer files for it eventually.

I definitely have

a bit over the top id say, but if u downscale it by prob 1:5 then i guess the comparison should be understandable for someone that doesnt know 40k, even tho its a bit inaccurate still lol

@@naomy1701 true, I just try to put it out simple

Small cars barely break a ton - that's a standard space marine's power armor. Your talking a large personal truck / small commercial truck for terminators. (Terminators also have more volume than a lot of small cars).

@@muninrob Eh, that's the confusing bit. You'd think they would weigh a ton, but most lore sources have even terminator armor weighing around .75 tons. Could just be that ceramite and plasteel are very light.

We dont know the weight of the materials used for the construction since they are fantasy crap so it can be whatever from 0,5 to 15 tons.

Unt? It's more of an ent than an Unt

@@justiceforjoggers2897 depends on the region of England I suppose. Bit southern fairies never gat anything right. Lol

It stems from the verb 'vary'. So it's pronounced vary-ant, you filthy colonial.

And nah I'd deffo say more unt than ant

@@chrisbingley Filthy colonials say it correctly, silence Limey

Iron Hands Terminator I entirely disagree with you.

@@funkyboy_22 Saturnine is great looking as a stand alone. Tartaros looks like baby Contemptors, and is therefore cool. Cataphractii is gorgeous for brutal reasons, those lightning claws mostly. And Indomitus is the staple of rather a lot of armies. They are all great in my mind.
