Nothing wrong with that :)

Same bro . Also I don't have any friends to play with lol

Same

Same here man! I think the models are cool af but I couldn’t afford the game with time or money haha and yet I’ve an encyclopaedic knowledge of the lore lol

I play video games of 40k but im with ya on the lore.

@@bradleymills3185 _The Raptors Chapter would like to know your location_

Almost like they are descended from the imperial Guard.

@@GreenBlueWalkthrough or the tau

the Tau marines we all wanted

@@40KTheories oh yes the scaredy cat marines. Walking tanks that prefer to wear camo and walk very slowly in tall grass

As someone who spiritually identifies as a Marine Malevolent… yeah they are cool.

I actively collect Marines Malevolent, and even I love the Star Phantoms. The Salamanders, not so much.

Absolutely. My bet is there was publicly a fake schism where the Dreadwing "left" to become their own chapter during the Second Founding. If anyone had weird, unnecessarily secretive plots after the Heresy, it was the Dark Angels.

So...Alpha Legion descendants?

I like this theory.

Your theory makes perfect sense. Also, Death Guard had a stable gene seed. I'm sure many Chapters are created using the traitor Primarchs gene seed since many Astartes of traitor legions remained loyal (hence the virus bombing/ Drop Site Massacre). The gene seed itself is not the cause of a Space Marine embracing Chaos. Why waste perfectly usable gene seed (many of which is stable) and shy away from a diversity of Chapters. I'm also wondering if many Chapters have combined gene seed from multiple Primarchs, which would be a cool concept to explore. Like imagine combining Imperial Fists and Iron Warriors gene seed; You would get Astartes that are great at siege and defense. Or Raven Guard and White Scars; Stealthy sneaky half Asians on fast Jet Bikes. However, combining something like Night Lords and World Eaters would just be a recipe for disaster. You can argue that the seed is stable, but the Astartes from those legions are far from stable individuals. Like getting the Butchers nails was optional, you've got to be an idiot to have those shoved in your brain because you wanna make Daddy proud. On a final note; I wonder which Chapters use the 2nd or 11th Legions gene seed? Would be nice to get a glimpse of how those legions operated.

@@borisdorofeev5602 Well it is highly implied that the “space sharks” poses a chimeric gene seed, often believed to be a blend of night lord, raven guard, and even world eaters. Now how this works is interesting considering they may have been founded by a Horus Heresy era night lord who escaped imprisonment, or founded from the ashen claw. It is rather interesting that even traitor legions are not sure to the point where one commented that they fight eerily similar to the night lords, but with more brutality.

It seems like the Star Phantoms are more about funerary/afterlife practices than death itself. The uncorrupted death guard would consider such practices as "reeking of sentiment". However, if they're descendants of the 70 on the Eisenstein, they'd definitely have embraced ritualism.

Isn't the Pre-Heresy Death Guard more interested in the idea of enduring hardships, rather than death itself? It's more that they just see death as a challenge to overcome, rather than something to just accept and embrace.

Yup, which is brought up later on :3

@@stephenkenney8290 takes one year to hear you. dad?...DAAAAAAAAAAAAAD.

I love this answer. I think it would be cool if they were ultramarine. The idea of the smurfs, who basically took the role of the angels during the horus heresy and have basically been an indirect thorn, being the father of a chapter given the name and heraldry of one of their lost wings, which were removed because of forced compliance with the codex, they would be absolutely livid.

Yes, I mention this several times in the video :P

I see what you did there

It took me a while but I too see what you did there

Scooberticus and his flag ship Mysterium Machina. One of the greatest hunters of heretics and daemons. Oddly friendly to xenos tho. It is said he would investigate anything, no matter how frightening, for a sufficient food tithe from the administratum.

@@jmagowan12 thank you for liking the comment friends!

Probably due to a simple warrior's mentality, to slay an enemy with your own hands as opposed to shooting them at a distance like a coward, or something to that effect.

@@40KTheories yeah that is what I was thinking, but a lot of the space marine chapters are seen as brutally efficient. Surely that's hypocritical. Then again, space marines aren't unfeeling Juggernauts, they are human to, in a way. Perhaps its a mental thing inherit in some chapters, or the worlds they recruit from? I guess there are thousands of potential reasons, but its still an interesting question.

@@r.cdahuman7682 Combine this with the fact that Astartes are absurdly good in melee combat compared to most forces they faced in the Great Crusade (heavy weapons a technologically advanced human world had could probably take an Astartes down at range, but in close quarters these weapons are impractical) and it makes sense why they would value (and thus glorify) this form of combat.

@@Triumph263 another good reason. Though the days of the great crusade are long gone, the effect it had on the Astartes is deeply imbedded within them.

@@r.cdahuman7682 I guess what's also embedded within them is quite often their homeworld's customs. Those recruited from feral worlds will most likely prefer the rather direct style of combat they have always been used too even when they are trained using long range weapons when becoming Astartes.

I see what you did there

I have no doubt that there are marines still alive from those the lost legions AND there have bein more made

@@updfdrakkell143 If the stories are true in that those two legions were folded into the 13th Legion, then several second founding chapters are really from them. The question then would be would they get gene seed from their lost Primarchs or from Guilliman? Cause if new marines could only use 13th stock then overtime the lost legion marines would die out and not be replaced. I would imagine Guilliman knew which marines were not his real sons but let them keep their father's gene seed out of honor. After all he had a table made up for all his brothers, loyal, traitor and lost and did so out of honor.

Eh. The Necrons got there first.

@@spookyghostwriter3110 good to hear haha

Yeah it is still fairly rare. Most chapters revere the Emperor as the ruler of humanity and the mightiest of men, but still just a man.

@@40KTheories Thanks for clarifying Lord Theories! I definitely thought that Marines became more radical over time but they're far too awesome to believe the all of the new religious stories. Great coverage as always sir. Thank you kindly.

@@crewie94 Only some of the nuttier chapters like the Black Templars or chapters who don't know their lineage usually descend into the cult of the God-Emperor. Others, especially those that were founded before the Age of Apostasy typically worship what TTS calls the Man-Emperor of Mankind. The Emperor is the pinnacle of humanity, the Primarchs [especially theirs] are his perfect sons, and through the Primarchs, they are his vision for humanity's future, the Ultramarines are a prime example of the latter, being integrated into the ruling class of Ultramar as demigod-kings [especially the Tetrarchs] as opposed to most chapters who are the scary beasts that live on the moon or tallest mountain that take children every so often [Space Wolves are an example of this]. The Chapters whose founders fought in the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy [with the exception of Black Templars because... Sigismund] had OG Chaplains whose job was to stamp out worship of gods of ANY kind, especially of the Emperor [because... Lorgar] and for a time enforce the Edict of Nicaea. Again Ironic that the Templars would keep that order, even though it was rescinded during the Heresy as Psykers were shown to be the most effective weapon against daemons, but ignore the whole "I am NOT a god" command.

Given the Death Eagles and Silver Skulls claimed heritage I’m pretty sure they all just say “definitely Ultramarines, 100%. Go Codex Astartes! See...” and that’s enough for the Inquisition.

If someone on Patreon nominates them as a topic, I will.

Lorgar (the ultimate book licker) would of failed just as badly

That's convenient, isn't it?

Agreed....... We need more lore on the lesser xenos races !

In "Void Stalker" a Nightlord spits acidic saliva into a loyalist champion's face. But their fight to the death may also answer your question: Against unprotected flesh this ability is a neat trick. But helmets are very common in Warhammer.

The betches gland is hard to write for because it's just relly extra. Why spit on them when you can stab or bolter.

Only if the original writers of those homebrews submit them themselves.

They were forced to comply with the codex, they were saddened but not enough to fight a civil war... now Luther!

If you're referring to the Warp Ghosts, we have a video on them :)

@@40KTheories good catch! I always struggle with the Chapter names that are synonyms. Love the videos!

STOMP STOMP!

Or are they Alpha Legion pretending to be Unforgiven? It's kind of perfect. Having loyalists, pretending to be traitors, pretending to be traitors pretending who pretend to be loyalists.

Sounds like Dark Angels to me...... "deny EVERYTHING"

Probably a mistyped or corrupted string of code in their biology sub routines...and they won't fix it because an update patch or system restore is tech heresy. 😋
