I don't know who came up with the name "Lucifer Blacks" but god damn that is badass. Get 60% off the 2022 Calendars here : majorkill.com/

they have a special power that custodes and astartes do not posess : the ability to fit through narrow hallways and tunnels

I love the power scaling in 40k. "That one child-turned-Lucifer got ONE hit on Alpharius before getting cleaved in two. Absolute god-tier guardsman"

I hope they get actual models or atleast some artwork one day

I can see them getting models as light infantry for the custodes. Would be interesting.

Ok I get that we haven't seen much from them because they have no personality, but having a lucifer black as the secondary strait man character to a Ciaphas Cain type. One succeed threw near superhuman skill and training acting as the bodyguard to the other who somehow manages to BS threw every thing. "How did you survive a one on one battle with a carnifex? "Good question ... I'm hungry, are you hungry? let's get lunch." "That doesn't answer my question." "Because you told me 'I don't know' is never a viable answer."

"genome raised" means that they were bred from selected parents especially for war, at least according to similar entries on the Lexicanum about Regiments of the "Old Hundred", the initial Imperial Army units

Video idea: How would each Primarch react and rule the imperium, if they were the one to return first instead of Guilliman

I feel like Sly Marbo would've been an incredible Lucifer Black. If he can do all he can with a combat knife and a ripper pistol, imagine what he could do with the imperium's best weapons and armor

I hope they get models someday, they would probably fit with Custodes and Sisters of Silence since they're the Emperor's bodyguards just the same. It would be a bit underwhelming if they just made them a Guard regiment.

I never heard about this Imperial regiment until now. Man this W40k has literally so much lore that I feel like I'm only on the surface of the iceberg...

A story centered around A lucifer black, could be very interesting, especially when playing off of more over the top characters. If it was about a squad of them, it would be boring, but if it is just one of them, and the are working to protect/operate with others, such as an inquisitor or a commissar, there can be so much to do. It would even work from the lucifer black's point of view, for the comedic value.

Read about this guys in the horus heresy book "legion" and they really seemed like true bosses

Person: *has ptsd* Imperium: That’s what I’m talking about!

I hope we get to see Majorkill talk about the League of Votann in the future.

If your an Imperial guard player you know about these guys I have been in the guard since 3rd edition they are this almost mythical regiment. Almost as legendary as the The old one hundred. The old hundred where the original 100 regiments that comprised the Imperial Army and fought during the Unification Wars and the great crusade. I believe some are still fighting in the current setting and even space marines know to respect them.

I was surprised that when you made a video of the most badass mortal human characters in Warhammer, the Lucifer who stabbed Alpharius wasn't included

Cool video. Could you do a video about Abaddon's relationship with the Traitor Primarchs?

Maybe a extremely short book from the POV of a Lucifer black would be cool and good

A video on necron crypteks would be pretty cool.

Imagine Lucifers with the Interex look or just straight up stolen gear. That would be perfect for a non-spacemarine elite human unit

These are just one more thing I'd wish to get in the 9e Guard codex, or have had rules for in one of the FFG 40k game lines, back when those were a thing; an example of the peak of human capacity, compared to genetically-engineered supermen, physically modified Assassins, and ridiculously superior alien strains. Oh well, still a fun group.

Man I’d be keen on some mini’s I can’t believe this isn’t an established faction 😳

It would be great if GW would add the Lucifer Blacks to the long-awaited "Agents of the Imperium" Codex.

I really love these videos about relatively obscure 40k pieces of lore. I learned so much about the setting here

A video on how Chaos marines recruit would be pretty cool

I love the vids majorkill keep up the good work you absolute mad lad

recently read Legion, glad to see the lucifers getting some love

YES! i've wanted to hear about these guys ever since your video listing off all of the gaurdsmen regiments! i even searched up to see if you did a video on them after that one. thank you! :D

finally the guardsmen of the golden throne i love these guys for one reason they are working with custodians i really wanna know what they look like soo badly ever since majorkills video of every guardsmen explained

Choas Guardsmen: Lmao choas good. Lucifer Blacks: Emps gud brah.

tbf John Grammaticus did struggle with the Alpha Legion, just not in combat. John was trying to get them to agree to a meeting with the Cabal, so he was trying to avoid fighting them. The Alpha Legion did end up manipulating John and the Cabal at the end of the book Legion, but the meeting did happen so they kinda both won.

In War of The Beast, the Eldar Harlequins massacred the Custodes during their Imperial Palace infiltration en route to the Golden Throne where the Man-Emperor of Mankind is. Of course GW had retconned it by having the Lucifer Blacks be the ones who got killed instead of Custodes. Alas, the memes will forever remember Custodes being chew toys of the Harlequins. *[BAZINGA!!!]*

Loving the upload times, a new video almost every single day

New low of primarch weakness discovered - gettin' killed by Dorn. In melee. "U' don't undestand its like loosing to a wall duuh"

I know you’ve covered them a bit in the past, but can you do a dedicated video on the enslavers? I just think they are cool

I am almost completely new to Warhammer as a whole and these guys sound by far the coolest out of anyone I heard of.

Just had a dream where I was promoted to magos while on a primitive world being invaded by orks. There was a cruiser that was mostly smokestacks and there was a regiment of those mechanicus russians decked out in red and metal jewelry and space marines that looked like they were in a chines parade while using flamers. The dream ended with me vivisecting a ork for his metal pieces that I was reforging for purity in the name of the mechanicus. What the heck did I eat before bed?

I already knew about these guys but I thought they stopped being a thing after the horus heresy ended, surprised to learn that they were/are still around. Though it does sound they are former shadows of the badasses they were during the great crusade

Hands down, the best 40k Lore channel to have ever existed... Love the videos bud.

maybe when those Harlequins who broke in we're killing Lucifer blacks but the writer mistook them for Custodes.

you make me want to make a regiment like this on table top. Sounds likea massive undertaking lol

hey Majorkill I thought it would be awesome if you made some videos of the other space marine foundings.

How tf did one of these guys slip past a Primarch's guard and stab him in the chest and which Primarch has to hold this L?

Great! You should do a Tempestus regiments episode!!!

Loved every instance involving a Lucifer Black in the Horus Heresy

Hey Majorkill. Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, The Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Thank you.

Man I really want your channel to grow and every time I think it's going to start growing even more than it has you bring out the hentei and then I realized you want there to be a cap on how big your channel can be

Be great to get some rules and models for these guys, they sound badass

Yes mate I’ve been waiting for a video on these dudes

Bro I love you’re videos so much

These guys need an army. They could be like a really expensive army with high point cost. Maybe as high as space marines. They sound way beyond anything a Imperial guard could be.

I LOVE wolfdawgart's work. Im so happy to see his stuff pop up in videos

Yes!!! YES!!! Although, as much as I love the crown jewls of the Astra Militarum... I feel like certain 'Deepers' might need explaining from an Aussie... [Edit: *Drifters? what the fgoogle]

Oh my god I’ve waited so long for this video

I love their name as it's so Grimderp to me, Lucifer Black sounds like a high school metal band lmao

I think a lucifer black book would be sick if they took influence from something like Starship Troopers (the book).

Thanks for the video!

I'd like to see a video about the horus hearsy and which legion had the best standard astarties and had the best none named warriors

"Space marine have guys that don't wear Helmet" 😭😂 damn this got me

Why not a video about the induction in the deathwatch? I just read a book about it and the training was very interesting. Plus there is a death spectre as main character!

I personally think a story about a Lucifer Black in the making would make for some neat and befittingly grimdark entertainment. Character starts out with a sense of jovial humor they never seem to get rid of to contrast the battered side all humans are born with in 40k, has a good bunch of people they hang around, but after a while on the path to become a Lucifer, they gradually become less and less human despite becoming more than most could hope to be. A sort of "what are you willing to lose on the path of power" type story, ending all bittersweet and whatnot.

Great video!

finally a video on these guys, you even beat luetin to the punch

Great video major

Sound like what would be a kickass addition to the custodies roster.

Idea for new vid- Who are on par with/superior to the Custodes? (Within and outside the imperium)

The Batmen of 40k, with guns!

My man is spitting videos lately!

The lucifers look what peak imperium could have become. Superhumans in high tech armour.

We need more lore on them

Hey have you thought of making a video about a 40k TV Series? Also a video on the PDF and all the "different" types would be cool there isn't alot out there

Don’t forget about their most important trait, they’re still human beings.

When I heard Lucifer black on the novel I always imagined middle eastern soldier wielding a saber I dont know why

I should've waited until today to order my calendar. I've got mine and I love it

Oh a codex to treat them like the harlequins of the guard would be cool and a limited line of models as well

I would love a novel f some Custodes on a crusade to recover lost artifacts backed up by squads of these guys doing the grunt work.

What if the Emperor never sought out the Primarchs, instead leaving them to expand their own empires and find the Imperium themselves? Which primarchs would make it, which ones would stay/fall behind, and how would it impact the overall setting?

Heh to be faire the primarch stabbed in a "duel" was Alpharius. He was more surprised to be engaged in melee by a human soldier than hurt.

You should talk about the solar auxilaria and compare it to the guard in the 40k

Im waiting for this year’s orktober special

What do you mean a novel about them would be boring. Look at the Death Korps of Krieg, they have the same personality as them and they are entertaining to read about.

Really hope for a video about space weapons.

Love your vids

Do a Tempestus Scions video!

Sounds like they would make a good retinue for an inquisitor, that would probably be a sick story since inquisition type books tend to have the best storyline, they would just add even more epic battle shit to it.

I like how in Warhammer when explaining things a good ol' "Whatever the fuck that is" nails it on the head most of the time.

GW: we can’t have a strong Guardsmen unit in the tabletop then nobody would buy our hoard units

That last piece of art is incredible

i could really go for a video on those loveable Ogryns.

Deathkorps of Krieg: *Keeps digging trenches* Lucifer Black: N O C L I P S U N D E R T H E G R O U N D

Man you should make a top 10 on non chaos spacemarines characters or on the dark mechanics and other traitor factions

Hope we get to see some Lucifer Black's fight some GeneStealers guarding a important member of the High Lords or such that would be cool as they would not have dialog but we get to see their fighting skill in 40K.

I foresee a group consisting of a couple Custodes, half a dozen Sisters of Silence, and a couple dozen Lucifer Blacks. Call them Guilliman's Godslayers.

Fina fuckingly Thank you for gowing over my favorite guardsman faction

Literally just finished Legion, this description of Lucifer Blacks is fucking chef kiss.

I think halo proves a protagonist that doesn't speak much could still work in a similar setting. Just gotta be kinda niche. Would love to see a novel focused on a lucifer that has the 'luck' stat master chief does and ends up saving humanity in one way or another.

I really hope they make theses onto models would 100% buy them

They sound almost like gene troopers, it is a concept seen in 1. with BattleTech with the Clans with those who are vat-grown, being sired in some cases from multiple genetic templates of the most elite veterans then being brought up in a Spartan lifestyle they might also further augment themselves with neural implants to increase reaction time, but the Claners being who they are well you guess how things went 2. then we have the Star Wars Null & Alpha class ARC Clone Trooper secret batches that had gene mod alterations that made them perfect candidates for the Phase Zero Dark Troopers, super soldier cyborgs, while still retaining their Mandalorian mindset & discipline, now while not many of the Fett clones remained the Empire following the Kamino Rebellion & the End of the cloning programs, they did keep on experimenting with DNA templates from human recruits who showed near perfect scores in the Clone Tropper training program, ARC & Commando programs as well, well those who survived, even if they were female humans, Legends wise the Stormtrooper core only allowed male humans till the Fell Empire age, the process would involve these individuals would have undergone genetic augmentations to be injected with what we could only describe as a Gene seed, be it from remaining Fett templates from other clone veterans or other Mandalorians & cybernetic augmentation similar in quality to the likes if General Grievous but not to that extent, or the soldier could vat grown with all the above, the only reason the project did not carry on was first Palpatine was dumb with super weapons, 2. many Moffs were just as dumb, 3 D.Vader while finding promise in the project was removed because of the first 2 reasons,

Haha, yes sent one to a team mate.. now hes interested in 40k, thanks majorkill.. and the lovely ladies of course.
