Khan has best quotes. Fulgrim: "I hear you do strange things to your ships." Jaghatai: "I hear you do strange things to your warriors."

I have this idea that the saddest day in Jaghatai's life was when he grew too big and heavy to ride the horses in Chogoris and since then, no vehicles he ever rode, no matter how fast he drove them, gave him the same feeling he felt when he rode a horse on the wide open plains of his homeworld.

‘Since when was saving mankind from the darkness a sign of weakness?’ said the Khan, ‘Sanguinius, my brother and comrade, what do you see? Lend me your foresight.’ Sanguinius shut his eyes. Like that, he appeared drawn and tired, a funerary monument to himself. Dorn supressed a shudder. ‘My sight is not so clear as father’s’, said Sanguinius. ‘The Future is ever in flux. Only some events…’ He paused, finding the words hard to say. ‘Only some events are certain.’ ‘Do you see me? What will be the consequences of inaction?’ ‘I see fire, and blood, and a world laid waste if you do not act.’ ‘If I act?’ said the Khan. Sanguinius opened his eyes to look at him. ‘There is a grave risk to you. A confrontation unlooked for, and if you survive, a flight from one danger into greater peril.’ ‘Who will I face?’ ‘I cannot divine.’ ‘Will I save lives?’ Sanguinius nodded. ‘Many.’ ‘That is what I was made for,’ said the Khan. *‘I will ride out.’*

"He actually stood still for more than 20 seconds? I am proud of his progress." "To be fair sir, the tank he stood upon was going at at least 200 miles per hour."

Saying, "Corvus Corax is in the Warp," doesn't do justice to him being a terrifying nightmare raven tormenting the fuck out of Lorgar, the Daemon Primarch scared to leave his room or the birb might get him.

Orks are lucky that they are the white scars. Imagine if they were the RED SCARS, FUCKING FASTEST GITS ALIVE!

Id like to share when the Khan verbally shot Fulgrim, ‘I wonder which one of you would win in a duel,’ the Angel mused. ‘I would like to see that. You both handle a blade like gods.’ ‘Name the place, brother,’ Fulgrim said to the Khan. ‘I’d even travel to Chogoris, if you built a palace to keep the dust from my armour.’ The Khan felt the insult. It stabbed at him, deeply, but his expression never changed. They could never know, none of them, how much their closed fraternity rankled him. ‘You would lose,’ said the Khan. Fulgrim grinned, but there was something fragile in it. ‘Oh?’ ‘You would lose because you would treat it like a game, like you treat everything, and I would not. You would lose because you know nothing of me, and I know everything of you because you shout it from the turrets of your battle cruisers. My prowess remains unknown. You have some reputation as a swordsman, brother, but I make no boast when I tell you I would leave you choking on it.’

When the Heresy started, Horus had to make a lot of plans to cripple the strongest Legions to ensure his success: Ultramarines and both Angels were caught in Ruinstorm, Thousand Sons were broken by treachery and Salamanders, Iron Hands and Raven Guard were decimated at Istvaan. However, Fists remained in Sol system and beyond his reach, Wolves remained a menace and White Scars were not an immediate threat and would likely join them. The last one was a horrible oversight, which caused the Traitors hideous casualties with their hit-and-run tactics. Khan was running circles around the enemy Legions and managed to reach Terra before the big siege. Also, the Scars DID have a large number of Horus-leaning Astartes, but Khan managed to turn most of them back. These repentees became the Ebon Keshig, a black-clad suicide squad which would earn their honour back through death.

The thing that's cool about White Scars is they actually made a chapter that feels like Gengis Khan era Mongolia with a future soldier twist. Like his attitude and the way he leads his men track well (in a general sense) with what we know of Gengis Khan. Whereas something like the Space Wolves are NOT a good representation of Space Vikings. They're just werewolves named Bjorn.

What's also cool: When jaghatai was first brought to terra they flew him past the moon where his flagship was being built And he looked at it and went "not fast enough" and he basically had them rip out several of their warp engines, (because who needs speed in the warp) so that there was more room for realspace engines Mind you: this was RIGHT after they plucked him of his planet, all his friends where still just fully regular dudes who've only ever rode HORSES And he looks at the official that was with them, some big diplomat or whatever, and he basically said "don't think that just because I'm new to all of this, I will blindly accept whatever you put in front of me, if I am truly so important to you, I want things done MY way" Which is just... Even his fucking MIND was fast

Actually DK, while Mongolian nomadic culture hasn't changed all that much, one of the major modern integrations they have made is in fact garnering a love of motorcycles

Forgot to mention Jaghati was arguably one of the best swordsmen. His murder spree against the Orks. His talk with Fulgrim.

Bricky: it's funny cos I always kinda FORGOT about White Scars. Still taking your daily dose of FORGET ME JUICE I see. Drill Abbot would be proud

The Scars waiting to think about what they should do is actually very on brand for them. They were extremely fast and ruthless in combat but only after careful consideration of exactly how and where all of their forces would attack. They also were expected to learn about painting, caligraphy, literature, philosophy and other things. They were like wise monks until it was time for ruthless carnage

"It's kinda like the Ceasar's Legion" - Bricky, describing literal copypaste origin story of the Genghis Khan to the letter.

Y'all left out the greatest thing he did during the siege of Terra: While standing on the back of a Razorback, the Khan successfully lead a counterattack against the traitor and took one of 2 major spaceports that was near the Imperial Palace, not only cutting down on the number of enemy reinforcements that was coming into the battle, but also bringing the orbital defense batteries back online. Also, the Razorback was going hundreds of miles an hours.

“Warriors of Chogoris! Brothers of the Great Tribe! The star hunt calls you, do you not hear it? The battle’s red edge is your home, the respect of your kinsmen your hearth. Plunge into the enemy's breast like a blade, cut out his heart, and you will know fulfillment. The Emperor has given us strength. In return we give him victory” Jaghatai Khan. ( I find it so cool that a Primarch was looked at as nothing but an outcast, barbarian and a savage managed to be one of the most loyal and instrumental individuals in saving the Imperium during the Horus Heresy)

If you have a bad time painting white: make sure to clean your tools always when you apply the main color, and use a bright primer before you paint with white.

My favourite part of the Scars book is when they're up against the Alpha Legion fleet (which is made up of a bunch of big cargo ships refitted to look like battleships) and the Khan decides to take over the movement of the fleet. They start floating around in seemingly random formations as if they lost all coordination which confuses the alpha legion. All the while, there's the narrator explaining how the Khan never adorned his fleet with fancy shit like fulgrim or made changes like ferrus manus would but instead the one change he made was to fucking nitro charge all the ship's engines to make them hyper-fast. Then the white scars ships come out of this random formation to all perfectly face forward and hit the go button, blasting past the alpha legion with ease.

Some corrections. First, while both Dorn and Guilliman were initially against Jaghatai Khan being immediately placed in charge of the V legion, Guilliman later specifically states that he "admires the Khan greatly." Second, Jaghatai Khan's was closest to Magnus and Horus. In fact, after Horus was named Warmaster at the Triumph of Ullanor, he told the Khan that he would have need of Jaghatai and his legion, to which the Khan said "You call, I answer." Third, the Khan and White Scars were pursuing the remnants of the orks from the Ullanor Campaign. Fourth, the White Scars had lodges, much like the Luna Wolves, Death Guard, and Emperor's Children. Also, these lodges favored allying with the Warmaster during the Horus Heresy. However, Jaghatai put an end to it (after his fight with Mortarion). Fifth, after Jaghatai and White Scars pledged to serve the Emperor, it still took his legion another four years to make it back to Terra. He did it by using an ancient device called the Dark Glass to travel to Terra via the Webway. Sixth, the White Scars are tactically sound. They don't simply charge into battles. They use their speed to surprise or outmaneuver their opponents. In their fight with the Alpha Legion, they pretended to scatter half heartedly to get the Alpha Legion into place and then used their speed to get around the Alpha Legion and take them out.

The concept of a Mongolian theme space marines chapter is pretty cool.

One of my favourite details about the Dornian Heresy is that it's the White Scars who fall to Slaanesh because of their utmost desire for freedom.

He didn't like the Imperial Truth. He viewed it as a lie and it took him up until the siege of Terra to view it as necessary.

Bricky, what the f? How can you say Jaghatai loved the Imperial truth? He absolutely was disgusted by it. He even said it to the Big E's face

FASTER FASTER FASTER White Scars confirm to be accelerationist..

I also think Khan kept his Librarian program running even when Big-E wanted to shut it down, so his Legion was way better at killing Demons with their Psykers as opposed to everyone else when the Heresy actually broke out.

Now I can't unsee the mental image of Vulkan in a waiting lobby with like a dispenser, a water cooler, some nice cushioned chairs (which are ridiculously smaller than him but can somehow resist his weight), a countdown clock over a door. And him just fidgeting, twidling his thumbs, grabing something from the dispenser, drinking water/coffee, whistling and looking at the clock. Or honestly, just him sitting straight and completely still with like a huge dumb closed-mouth smile on his face while he stares at the clock, hands crossed.

Jaghatai Khan is fast Alpharius is SUS Guilliman has Ultra-depression Konrad is dead Mortarion is in dire need of a shower TTS is cancelled All are the truth and none are lies, some unfortunate and some quite the opposite.

Fun note on jump pack White Scars, those were mostly the scars originally from Terra. Khan was the one who implemented a focus on mass mounted warfare.

We of the Horde of Jaghatai may not have the recognition of the Imperial Fists, though we too fought at the Siege of Terra. We may not have the tactical prowess of the Ultramarines, though we too were raised as more than mere warriors. We may not have the Techmarines of the Iron Hands, or the duelists of the Dark Angels, or the viciousness of the Space Wolves. What we offer is ours and ours alone. If you do not know more, then we have no interest in educating you on our ways and customs. But if you wish to be more open-minded than many others, then I offer you a tale of quick-drawn blood, sullied blades, sheathed steel, traitors and unexpected allies...

Man I was hoping Bricky would bring about how the Khan disagreed with the Emperor when it came to certain parts of the Imperial Truth and how he legit had a super mode.

I'd imagine White scare chaos as centaurs but instead of horses it's bikes.

The Khan was also originally intended to be sent to Chemos, the planet Fulgrim ended up on, but the Eldar Laughing God switched him and Fulgrims pods. Funny how the laughing primarch has the laughing god looking after him lol

Yall forgot the part where he hauls the noble part of magnus’ soul back to terra and Malcador merged it with a loyalist thousand son that had the flesh change, creating the first supreme grand master of the grey knights. Epic vid as always! Love the new intro theme!

So I fight for a Father who I never loved, against a brother that I did. I defend an empire that never wanted me against an army that would have taken me in a heartbeat. With that quote, I'll actually start watching.

He has a hair squig just to prove how much of a chad he is.

The Kahn is in my eyes the most perfect/sane Primarch. While Sanguinius was messed up by his Visions, Guillyman filled with arrogance and blind and Rogal beeing... Rogal... , The Kahn had actually a balanced personality and knew his place in the wide galaxy. I loved every bit of text I read about him. He´s almost my favourite Primarch!

I'm just imaging The Hu wolf totem on hover bikes now.

The Lion had a horrible upbringing, yet was raised on a death world and remained loyal. DO THE LION AND DARK ANGELS EPISODE!! Save Blood Angels for Halloween...

The more I hear about Khan the more I like him. He's very no-nonsense, he knows what he likes. He's true to himself whilst at the same time acting beyond self interest.

"he is Anakhan" Cegorach is pleased

I might be getting some details wrong, but something I like about Jaghatai is that sure he's down to conquer the galaxy for the imperial truth and shit, but he actually disagreed with ol' Emps on the warp bits, because I believe Chogoris had some very minor involvement with or knowledge about warp entities, so Jaghatai knew enough to know that the Emperor was full of shit, and didn't agree with his reasoning. I also find it amusing that the Dark Angels had a 10,000 year panic attack when just some of their members went traitor because they were following orders from Luther that they thought were legit (sure Caliban broke and lots of the Fallen are still around, but details), whereas a solid half of the White Scars wanted to actively join Horus in his rebellion, but the Scars just don't give a shit.

I wished you guys talked more about the white scars culture. They are actually much more than just "Warrior, fight, fight more, repeat", they adore knowladge, arts and poetry, and think they must be more than savages like the others, and dislike that the other legions (except Magnus and Sanguinius who shared his passion for other crafts) saw the Scars as only dim-witted barbarians like the World Eaters or Space Wolves

When you get to blood angels, you can Segway really well from Sanguinius and the Chapter into a bookclub episode about Devastation of Baal. The book catches them up to Girly-Man’s current shenanigans. Also BUGS.

Oh wow, a White Scars episode after TTS was unable to show Jaghatai in the show Wonder if that was planned

Fulgrim: I heard you do strange things to your ships! The Jag: I heard you do strange things to your warriors. This burn was actually the bigger than the istavan fire storm and the sacking of prospero combined

Dorn being a gloater is absolutely not the case, his conquering in the great crusade was the most simple defeat them and leave tactics, he didn't even bother assimilating them so the planets he taken were all culturally distinct, and this made rebellions less likely in the short-term, he is definitely no nonsense and quite efficient like Perturabo, though not to the extent where he will keep fighting on despite the visible strain on his forces like perturabo did (until the iron cage) This is especially showcased in the battle with Alpharius/Omegon, which he never said a word and just got on with it whilst Alpharius/Omegon was always talking to try and convert him.

The chug chug massacre was one of the most bloody battles of the horus heresy

Angron and Curz as the doofy dragons to Morty's angry one made me spit out my drink. Good one shy!

The ruinstorm wasnt actually keeping the scars out. The Alpha legion had a xeno tech pylon array the Kabal gave them that basically did the same thing. Until the alpha legion infiltrated the alpha legion and flew it into a star.

The dude straight up ripped out the heart of a Keeper of Secrets with his bare hands

Motorcycles are _very much_ a Mongolian thing IRL. Look it up, its actually relatively common for Mongolians to literally live in traditional yurts but fuck around with drones and travel by motorcycle preferentially.

IT'S ABOUT TIME. FAVORITE CHAPTER. FAVORITE PRIMARCH. I'M GONNA PRE

While Dorn, Sanguinious and the Emperor were teleporting onto the Vengeful Spirit, the Khan was still out fighting on terra. the teleport strike was a very short window where the Emperor had to rally about as many men as possible in the span of about 60 seconds.

Pretty sure Fenris and Nocturne would be considered death worlds, one of constant fire the other constant ice. Yet Russ and Vulkan remained loyal.

I would think that the khan's relationship to fulgrim is important. The fact cegorach switch their birth planets only for the Khan to go into the webway(aka cegorach's home), and we know cegorach wants to bring slaanesh down. Also the fact that fulgrim fell to slaanesh and slaanesh tried to tempt him is also a thing that will come up when the Khan returns.

Finally, my favorite primarch

And the name "White Scars" was a mistranslation that they never bothered to correct. Just like the Space Wolves.

Gotta say, loving that added depth to the intro music. Makes it feel girthier.

My dog died this morning and this is helping me to make it a little less hard. The fallen shall be forever remembered as the Emperor's finest

When yall do the blood angles and sanguinius you better bring up how sanguinius canonically has a sort of Italian accent and how Dante is a very based sad tired old man who got to hear the silent king speak and has led the legion longer than sanguinius ever did. Girlyman very likes Dante, gave him a whole segmentum yaknow?

My name is Jaghatai Khan, and I am the fastest man alive. To the outside world, I'm a Primarch, but secretly, with the help of my friends at Imperium of Man, I fight Xeno and find other meta-humans like me. I hunted the man who killed my mother, but in doing so, I opened up our world to new threats. And I am the only one fast enough to stop them. I am... The Khan!

Your blood is loyal to the clan but this scar shows your loyalty to me.

40k could make for a pretty good yugioh style anime the protagonist would be an imperial guard player just getting into 40k the friend who got him into 40k who plays the lamentors space marine chapter his friend who plays astral claws the token girl and/or love interest who runs sisters of battle the smart guy who uses admech but his advice never works the friendly rival who plays orks and goes from proper british to ork speak a cranky old necron player whos been playing since rouge trader a cult of genestealer players led by a tyranid player etc

I’m so fucking happy that you’re finally covering my favorite Primarch and Legion. If there was any fun theme 40k could play with in its setting, it’s gotta be space Mongolian conquerors on jet bikes. Fuck. Yes. “Crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women… while proceeding at high velocity.”

The one chapter crazy enough to out-ride Doomrider. Somewhere on Chogoris a silver-coated head screams a muffled "I DO COCAAAAAAINE"

Don't forget that Leman Russ thought he can beat anyone (His brothers) in one vs one except Sanguinius. He forgot that Jaghatai Khan is a sword meme.

I hope they will do Corax and Raven guard some day. He's not an edgelord as he looks like

MY FAVORITE CHAPTER AND PRIMARCH I WAITED FOR SO LONG

New headcannon. Finding the relics of vulkan reduces his respawn timer.

Palatine was a high ranking court official in Rome and it's successors. Basically a governor or regent. The Electorate of the Palatinate was a country within the HRE whose rulers (the Counts Palatine) were prince-electors of the HRE. So, all in all, GW actually got one vaguely right.

I feel like to spite Bricky there should be an animated intro that’s JoJo as hell with the end being in the squeakiest anime voice of all time saying “season 2 b-b-baka” This would hurt me but more importantly it would hurt him worse

them even mentioning blood angels is gettimg me SO HYPED FOR SANGUINIUS

It’s said all the primarchs represent a specific aspect of the Emperor/Humanity. I think that the Khan is meant to represent that untamable part of the human spirit that yearns for freedom and personal fulfillment

I hope you quoted the "we stayed true" speech, regardless of context it is truly inspiring and a generally good words to abide by

So Arch recently covered the Scars novel in the Horus Heresy, and he brings up an interesting point that EVERYONE seems to forget that Jaghatai and the White Scars exist when they're not around, and Magnus brings up the notion that Jaghatai is actually a talented psyker, but the Khan dismisses him. Magnus is under the impression that Jaghatai is just trying to be slick by hiding his powers, but Jaghatai acts as if the concept has never really occurred to him that he might be psychically gifted, even though there is such a prolific psyker presence in the White Scars in the form of the Storm Seers, and Jaghatai himself both pushed forward the creation of the Librarius and had his Legion disregard the Edict of Nicea, blatantly disregarding an order from the Emperor that even Magnus and the Thousand Sons hesitated to disobey. So the theory goes that Jaghatai Khan is actually a psyker with the natural ability to make people forget he exists when not in his presence, similar to Corax and his Wraith Slip allowing him to turn invisible by blocking the perception others have of his existence; Corvus can't be seen, but Jaghatai can't be remembered. Which fits because both have a heavy association with birds; Corvus and ravens, and Jaghatai and hawks. The theory also goes that Jaghatai isn't aware that he has this power and just assumes people keep forgetting about him, which is why he is bothered by Magnus insinuating he's actually a powerful psyker, and this ability has been passed on to his Legion to a certain extent, hence why the White Scars have a long history of success, and yet they are rarely ever acknowledged to even exist, let alone be derided by their contemporaries for being 'dishonorable savages'.

39:35 Answer; not really actually. In 1st Edition, the Whitescars (before it was White Scars) filled the role that the Ultramarines now fill. They were the original Space Marine Chapter in 1st Edition lore, and as such were the template for every other Space Marine Chapter since them.

Man, just try to imagine a horse capable of carrying a Primarch.

The white scars who were allied with horus were fighting with the loyalists on the khans flagship until he teleported back up and all fighting immediately stopped. He basically said "knock the shit off, we are going to Terra" and they all just obeyed. The traitors were shamed but allowed to still be part of the legion

Im curious about your take on Ferrus and Iron Hand but Im afraid it would be only memes without the tale of him being probably one of the most tragic case of all the primarchs, the story about his ideals and how he lost himself upon being betreyed by his most beloved friend and brother and I dont know if i want to see this. Sincererly your (probably) only Ferus Mannus fan.

Regarding the idea of Loyalist Primarchs having boring childhoods, well, there are a few... ... outliers.

Where is my Mogolian throat singing version of the intro music?!?! WHERE IS IT?!?!

Games workshop: *Puts references to Genghis Khan in Jaghatai Khan's backstory so unsubtle they make "Sly Marbo" look like a zodiac letter* Also games workshop: *Writes Jaghatai Khan as using the same techniques for integrating other tribes as Genghis Khan did in real life* Bricky: "oMg JuSt LiKe CaEsAr'S lEgIoN!"

Jaghatai is a top teir primarch and definitely needs more love

That Assassinorum meme is literally the best thing I've seen all week. Iconic

You kinda made it sound like the Khan was all for the idea of the imperial truth which wasn't so much the case, he hated the idea of hiding the truth of the warp's existence from the rest of humanity and to a degree he was pissed with big E for pulling the wool over humanity's collective eyes. Also minor nit pick, the Khan didn't directly change the legion's name to white scars, rather it was the imperium who gave them that name through a lack of understanding. Overall though I'm glad y'all were able to give the Khan some love and I look forward to the legion's episode

Khan arriving at Prospero: where’s Alderaan? I only see rocks and rubble.

This probably isnt the right place to make a request, but Id actually enjoy learning about Corax and the Raven Guard through you guys!

When you go over emperor’s children please cover Rylanor, or even give him his own episode.

"Going faster than those knife-eared assholes" and "of low quality" is all I know about the white scars

“Who will stand with you against the aether-weavers now? Angron? Lol. Curze? Lmao.” - Jaghatai Khan, Primarch of the White Scars

I hope the Salamanders or the Emperor’s Children are next

Who else says "Honored be his name" every time they say Jaghatai Khan, Honored be his name

"Never surrender! Never give up!" - Jaghati Kahn XD

Never forget the Khan killing so many Orks so fast they were wary to go fight him. He made Orks scared to fight him

Ah, yes. Speedy Mongolians on Bikes and their Primarch is literally Flash and Drukhari ars cheeks clapper P.s. By the way, for some reason there is a lot(well, not) Rule of the 3rd and 4th featuring Yvraine and Emperor of the Ultramarines but it couldn’t be said for Khan and Lilith(Famous Wych Arena Champion of Drukhari)

Shy's editing is such a gift. Bless you Shy, you're awesome!

*Mongolian throat singing intensives*

I can imagine some poor poor heretics fighting the white scars... 'I shot his bike out from under him!' 'great, now he is using his jet pack to fly at you' 'hey, I got in another lucky shot and took out his jet pack' 'good for you, now he is sprinting at you' 'we're dead, aren't we?'

My favorite chapter is the mantis warriors. They are a successor chapter that are on jungle world so instead of bikes they just run through the jungle with heavy bolter and are great at like ambushes pretty cool
