"The C'Tans had absolutely no reason to suspect their mindless machine puppets would ever rise up against them. Imagine waking up one morning to discover that you've been taken prisoner by Lego figurines, and you'll have a rough approximation of the level of 'What The Fuck' the C'Tans experienced when the Necrons blasted them into star particles with big ass space guns." Pretty accurate.

@@bigshirley8658 Except that the difference between a human and an animal is far less than the difference between the Necrontyr and a bloody STAR GOD. We're not gods compared to horses and dogs. Both can kill us relatively easily. A single Necron has no chance against a C'Tan. Also I don't believe the C'Tan were fighting alongside the Necrons in as much as they were just pointing them at their targets.

One this that I miss about the Necrons was the idea that every time they died and were repaired, a bit of their memories would get damaged, so those footsoldiers on the front line who have died thousands of times have almost nothing left of their old selves, while the leaders who stay away from the conflicts may have only died a dozen or so times and as such simply gained a few eccentricities. I always felt this gave them more of a continuing feel of death and them loosing themselves over time. It makes them feel even more sorrowful and sad to me, thinking that when they first woke in their new bodies they had all their memories, but as ages past each time they saw their friends becoming less and less themselves, and finding the price of their immortality was to cease to be who they were in both flesh and mind. Simply being turned into a mindless robot immediately feels a lot less impact full. Also gives them less of a feeling of declining over time which I used to like.

During warm periods on earth you humanity flourishes but during cold periods there is disease famine ect. The thing is we need to balance ourselves out. Soon enough we should be able to regulate our climate through terraforming so I'm not the biggest doomsday the sky is falling type when it comes to that. Think about a green Antarctica or sahara.

Necrons: We hate the old ones because they won't cure the ailments that we can cure ourselves, but refuse to because it will make us too different from our ancestors. C'tan: We can use our god powers to remake your bodies not just without their ailments, but as vastly enhanced super soldiers. You just need to walk into this friendly 'Furnace Temple' (because your people have only ever had good associations with 'intense heat') and then you'll finally be able to continue the war with those guys who have gone out of their way to leave you alone throughout your entire history, including after you tried to exterminate them. Necrons: K then, seems legit.

By the time the Necrontyr walked themselves into those soul-rending easy-bake ovens, they weren't really in a position to choose one option or the other, also the Necrontyr who got turned into unliving automatons were not the same ones that first got off of their godawful planet... heck they were probably thousands of generations apart from those first explorers.

It's not like the C'tan overly advertised the whole "you'll be turned into essentially mindless slaves entirely different from your original selfs" part. They simply told the Necrontyr "We'll cure you". The C'tan didn't exactly lie, but they withheld some rather important pieces of information about HOW they planned on curing the Necrontyr. Also, at that point in Necrontyr history they didn't really have many options. They are in a civil war for dwindling ressources on a dying planet in constant pain and they just came out of a large scale war against the old ones, the ones that COULD have helped them but refused to do so. And in that situation the C'tan came to them and told them "we can solve all of these problems for you in one go." And it's not even that the ruling triarch just jumped at this chance with no though whatsoever. Remember that they took an entire year to come to a conclusion. The ruling triach absolutly knew that the C'tan were going to fuck them over, they just underestimated just how much the C'tan were going to fuck them over.

Agreed. The argument could be made that the Eldar have it worse but I find it really hard to think it tragic when they murderfucked their empire to its downfall. The Necron/tyr started with nothing and clawed their way to make a life worth living, when a way out was offered they took the relief. Only to get screwed over when another race simply had it all. Immortality and prosperity and the means to save them. The Eldar abused their prosperity to such excess that they hoisted their own petard. It’s a similar reason as to why I liked Angron: He started with nothing and strove against his fate.

I think the problem is not that the Emporer would have issues with the warp, the Black Library books describe the Emporer as having literally wrestled against the biggest "gods" within the warp and taunted them during his "outer body experiences". The issue is that it would take him several decades to reincarnate and there's no telling if that is all it would take for the human race to snuff it under current circumstances.

In regards to Tyranids designed by the Old Ones and that being contrary to the Old Ones Philosophy of maintaining all live. The Tyranids store all genetic information of the stuff they eat. They are essentially a big Genetic Databank, using whatever they have eaten in the past as a means to prevail in the future and as such you could assume the Tyranids function not only as fire line, depriving the Necrons of the resources and starving them out, but they also store the stuff they eat. It could be very likely that the Old Ones had a means to turn the Tyranids into reverse. If you assume the Tyranids not only store the genetic material but also the location where they got that material from, its entirely possible to have the tyranids return to that place and plaster the place with the exact genetic make up they had previously absorbed, thus reseeding the entire planet into its original form and since the Tyranids collect biomass, nothing really gets lost in that process. Just have to keep the Tyranids away from the Necron.. the Tyranids collect all the Necron's food and wait until they starved, and then go back and reseed the planets with what they had collected.

The necrons all waking up at different times is actually really easy to explain. Depending on how efficient the stasis fields are then the difference between when the necrons in World A pressed the 'nap time' button and when the necrons in World B pressed the same button then they could be split up in awakening even if it was just by seconds and the fields were set to the same times.

Arch, I'm curious about Necron stasis fields versus Imperial ones. According to your video, Necrontyr stasis fields do not cease the flow of time, but simply slow it down. Do Imperial stasis fields behave in a similar fashion? Specifically, does the stasis field encompassing the still-live-body of Roboute Guilliman behave similarly? If so, then perhaps that could explain why his wounds appear to be healing over time?

Terrifying thought - if the Necrons simply want organic bodies to live in, a decent Arch-Heretek with a mastery of human cloning could create Necro-Sapiens. Humans with Necron technology, as an enemy of the Imperium of Man? I'd put my money on the IoM, but if it happened between the death of the Emperor and the Birth of the Star Child, then Human, Necron and Eldar could all be one species (oh the shadenfreude on that realisation), guarded by a Warp God. That would quite literally be the most terrifying force in the Universe. Space Marines backed by Necron tech and Eldar-Human Psykers? Chaos may not get to stay in the Warp very long!

C'Tan are not able to be destroyed by mortal means? After trapping one in a tesseract vault toss the vault into the super massive black hole at the center of the galaxy. The stasis field would let you get it close enough to get it in before it could use its powers to get away. Yes, it would get out as it was pulled into the accretion disk and get plenty of plasma to nom on, but it would not be able to gain enough energy to stop it from passing the event horizon and experiencing the relativistic time dilation that would be much like the box it was in before. Finally it would be speghettified and deposited as a thin layer on the singularity. The Hawking Radiation would contain a record of the C'Tan, but the energy would have been transformed through gravity into another form entirely. Like running an animal through a blender. You could tell a lot about it from the remains, but the bunny isn't running around the garden anymore. C'Tan eat stars, so they are made of stars. Black holes eat galaxies. Maybe the Necron didn't think to try this because they didn't understand the nature of black holes? When dealing with super powerful aliens, do what Doctor Who would do.

I'd deviate from the obvious path in that the Tyrannids are indeed a creation, but not a finished one. Maybe they were a terraforming creation made by the Old Ones or another one, but before they could finish their work the creator got killed, but the base Tyrannid was made and started to make a purpose for it's own. The idea about them having a creator hangs in with that while it could happen naturally what the Tyrannids are... up to the point that they would never leave their home planet without something externally handing them the bio mass data for their interplanetary travel.

@hitomisalazar4073

Well it was less about the Sisters Sororitas and more about the lead up and Age of Apostasy but this makes sense considering his general patterns. I mean he covered the War in the Heavens before covering Orks because as he said, context was needed. All in all I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't exactly what I had hoped for but it wasn't exactly the one sided lambasting and going "Faith is stupid, the emperor hates faith!" that I typically hear from people when they cover the Ecclesiarchy. It pulled as well from the version of the lore that the Ecclesiarchy is inherently greedy asshats before the Thorian Reformation. Which to be fair, some sources have said that so yeah. Don't blame him. He did take one moment to point out though that it was more a "people in power" thing than "Faith is evil", which was appreciated. So yeah, pleasantly surprised. Considering bits like on his Tyranids Planetary Invasion video he dismissed Sisters Sororitas as "... yeah they'll just kamikaze into the Tyranids and accomplish nothing" and a few other tidbits he's said here or there. I felt a bit too much was emphasized on the Leticio Divinatus which I mostly blame the Horus Heresy Novel series for. In the lore I remember originally reading it pointed out that the Imperial Cults weren't really a thing until Post Heresy. And that while many groups held up that book as a guiding text, it was by no means "THE" text. It wasn't a Bible, Qoran, Torah, etc. And the "Temple of the Savior Emperor" which was eventually the dominant cult that became the Ecclesiarchy over a millennia post Heresy didn't seem to have TOO much connection to it, in that they didn't follow it as a dogmatic text. That and in particular we don't actually know what that text really covers. I mean think of the fact that Guilliman's Codex Astartes fills an entire library with thousands of tomes on a topic as (relatively) concrete and direct as Warfare. How much do we think Lorgar who was the Master of Faith among the Primarchs might have written in his tome? Is it even really just one tome or is it some three million odd pages of philosophical ramblings, thought experiments, meditative techniques, etc? Because I could totally believe that. But in the Horus Heresy they tend to treat the Leticio Divinatus as if it's one book widely published in pocket size that has not been edited/culled/is a greatest quotes compilation of. And that the Imperial Cult is already in full Swing as the Heresy gets rolling. It's a matter of conjecture and I admit, but it does sound more plausible to me that the copies cultists are bandying about are basically like the pocket Codex Astartes that Space Marines carry around. A small selection of quotes designed to inspire thought, sort of a "Most Inspirational Thoughts" compilation than the direct copy of the volumes or just a cliff notes "Here's the concrete rules" sort of thing. We can kind of see that sort of tendency as well with the Tactica Imperialis. When it is quoted in lore, it tends not to be a direct "You shall affix bayonets and charge if you outnumber the enemy 5 to 1" or something quote. But just thoughts meant to inspire tactical thought in the most broad of terms like "Strike quickly, a war is most easily won when the enemy does not even know its fighting". So what is the Leticio Divinatus? What does it actually say? Does it just go "Emperor is a god, worship him, here is how" or does it say things like "Is a man better off standing alone against the terrors of the battlefield and the hardships of live, or better off knowing that there is a benevolent, powerful figure who watches over him? Is he better off more self reliant, or better off empowered by the faith in things greater than himself?".

I fucking love this video! Must have heard it 4 times by now. Every channel I'm subscribed to has one, or two of those, and they are pretty high on the most popular list.
