MARK VI CORVUS PATTERN POWER ARMOUR IN WARHAMMER 40000 The Mark 6 power armour was the first pattern for the very first space marine models released for warhammer 40,000. There is important lore on how and why they were made, but I also go into a brief note on when it came out and Rogue Trader the first edition of Warhammer 40K. The story at the start is just fan fiction and never ever to be considered cannon. PATREON LINK: www.patreon.com/join/3510517 NEW CHANNELS!

The best space marine armour is called mark 11 plot armour.

Thanks for that message at the end. I don't know how many people needed to hear that, but I wish it was said more often. Great work as always Baldermort. Don't let our demands keep you from doing what you have fun doing.

The Beaky boys of The Raven Guard approve of this episode!

That little speech at the end there, man, all the feels at once. Beakie superiority forever.

Mk6 represents such a happy time, entering this hobby, the excitement of Rogue Trader, and its nostalgia means more to me than any other MK could ever get close to.

I wonder how many times a space marine used the beak of their helms to peck an enemy to death

The Corvus Power Armor is perhaps one of the most ironic armors that the Space Marines have ever worn in their ten thousand years of service within the Imperium, and while many new power armor were later created in the Emperor service it was this beak helmeted armor that shaped assault squads for many generations.

The way you talk about 40k, the fun and engagement and the sense of how much you love it really is just so infectious. Master storyteller, thank you for sharing your feelings on this fun and fascinating hobby, and this video!

Gentle storyteller, it pleases me to no end that Mark VI Corvus armor is your favorite - As a Raven Guard player in 30k, and a Raptors player in 40k, the humble beakie is a staple in all my Astartes forces!

This MK6 was the hook for so many of us that jumped into this wonderful game. Mk6 has always been my favorite. A most splendid video Baldermort. 👍❤

A fantastic video Baldermort, thank you for giving us some more Power Armor goodness, you really knock it out of the ball park with the Power Armor Lore!

That was the coldest finishing move I’ve ever heard in 40k, another banger story Baldy!

Came for the lore by Brother Balders (as always), but stayed for the absolutely beautiful life lesson at the end. Thank you, Balders. ❤️

A fine video with a beautiful message, it is good to see in this day and age that people still remember the core of 40k is just dumb fun.

I'm a huge fan of the Mark 3 Iron armor. It just looks so angry!

Even if one does not play Warhammer 40K, one can appreciate the time and care that goes into painting and creating the armies.

That whole ending almost brought me to tears, I absolutely love your take and way of putting the hobby as a whole

One of if not the best looking helmet designs and a marvel of technology. The Mk VI has earned its favour from the raven. Sleek, predatory, and the herald of doom for countless foes. Even the brutes of the orks know the space marines by its shape and power. I do wish that as time marches on and new armour marks arise, we see the Beakie continue to endure and survive, much like the man and legion it is names after - even if they are scant few and we as hobbyists much scavenge and customise our models.

I do so love these very human moments at the end of your videos. I find them just as enthralling and thought-provoking as your fanfictions themselves. Thank you for another remarkable banquet on this Friday evening, my soul is more than satisfied.

Baldermort, fantastic story, and background as always, but can i please express my utmost joy and thanks for the true message towards the end of this video, it has brought me to blissfully happy tears tears and allowed me to feel such pride for what i and we hold so dearly. Thankyou. Bravo, and thankyou. -Mat

BEEN WAITING FOR THE CONTINUATION OF THIS ARMOR SERIES!

As ever, Baldermort sprinkles eloquence on a video and demonstrates his mastery of drama and raw vocal power. We salute your knowledge and flair. 07

Is it the best armor? Probably not. Is it my favorite? Absolutely.

Thanks! I can't understate how much the last part of the video hits home. I needed that so badly. Thank you baldermort.

Hey there, Baldermort, I don't know if you'll read this, but I'd like to let you know I eagerly await every video you put out. I have exactly zero experience in the actual tabletop and figurines, but your storytelling and world building bridges the gap for me. So I thank you. With regards, your eager subscriber. You are one of the few channels I give that coveted Bell notification.

Lore, enthusiasm, perspective, and a plea for fun *and* reason. Preach on, wise servo-skull.

My favourite chapter of Sensible Marines getting some love again, on top of the fuzzy nostalgic feeling I get whenever I see the beaky plate. Takes me back decades to my childhood when I was first getting into 40k. A timeless classic, more iconic than any new armour can be, all presented by my favourite narrator. You always find the best artwork too! Today is a good day.

Thank you so much for this. I very recently got back into the hobby, focusing on Horus Heresy, but was a player back in 2nd edition, I even have some Rogue Trader era models knocking around. This video, the message at the end... thank you for articulating these feelings

Another absolute BANGER from our man Baldemort. Your content is up there with the best of the best.

That ending sums up exactly how i feel about it......play for fluff and fun and beware of the company's business strategies. Imaginative fun with friends is the point right? The rules conveyor belt is a thing. Bravo Bauldy very well said 👏 👏 👏

Always a treat when I listen to new lore education from you Baldermort. Plus told in such an amazing style and in your Godly voice. Thank you for your work!!

Beakies my beloved.

Wow, baldy. the closing part hit home. Thank you for that perspective. I needed that.

Thank you for all your efforts on giving us so much, Sir Baldy! I listen to your stories on the construction site, it makes work so much more enjoyable

That last bit brought a tear to my eye. Makes me love my hobby again

Another amazing linguistic feast to devour! Thanks for making it fun 🤩

Fantastic video, and absolutely love your take at the end on FOMO/FOWAB! What a great way to close out the video!

What a delightful surprise. I didn't expect such an insightful soliloquy from power armor. You're an alchemist, Balders.

"a hell hole covered in sparklers." Brilliant! Thank you! The nostalgia of those 80's packs. . . . . "sigh". Again, thank you!

I love the wise nostalgia as much as the lore about the power armour 😊

I remember seeing Warhammer at the local hobby shop and falling in love. But I had no money and no friends that played it. Then early 90's Bolt Thrower came out with Realm of Chaos and I fell in love with them. I always knew a surface scratching of the lore but only recently dove more into the lore. Channels like this that also explore fan fiction is what it's all about. RPG's and table top games are about telling stories and having fun with friends.

These guys are what got me into miniature gaming all those years ago.

Another amazing video my good man, looking forward to more from my favorite Warhammer channel.

Love that last message. Grew up alongside Warhammer but literally never entered my "vision" until 2017 with Total War Warhammer. Jumped in proper in 2019...just in time for the Pandemic. My Age of Sigmar side project became my main focus after doubling down on Brood Brothers saw me enter 9th edition with half a Genestealer army and half a Guard army and no passion for either. Tried to get onboard with the Asuryani and Corsairs...but despite investing treasure and time...they spark no joy. Now here I sit on a hot day listening to your proclamation of fun and I have my first eBay acquisition in front of me. 5 Infernus Marines. I avoided Marines this long for a myriad of reasons, but mostly for what you touched on: fear. Fear of what others would say/think. But 2023 is now the year I open my home to the Covenant of Fire Chapter and I'm as excited for them as I was my first box of Neophyte Hybrids or Lumineth Bladelords. Life is too short to dwell on the negative.

Don't know why YT is sending me notifications so late but there's worse ways to spend the rest of the morning after the early shift. Emperor protect the humble one.

The og loremaster presenting the og corvis armour. Perfect end to the long work week my friend hope all is well glad you're back friend

Writing as I listen to the end of the video. I always love hearing the passion in your voice when talking about the hobby. We all need a Baldy one in our lives, in any of our hobbies.

Thanks Baldermort. I've always enjoyed it when the good guys can tweak the villain's nose

What a beautiful video. Not only was the lore fantastic, that bit at the end of how Warhammer has evolved from the og days till today & advice to keep it fun made me realise that this man Baldermort really is a pillar of the community.

The weekend is here, boom, Lord Baldermort delivers a treat 🔥

Yes! I've been waiting for you to cover my favorite pattern of power armor since I started watching your content. Thank you!

Aww Baldy I adore you, especially the gush-athon, you geniuenly described the 40k community and that's why I adore it. Because sometimes you just need to chill and relax and most importanly of all. IT IS FUN. So we can forget our woes and bask in absolutely badass and hardcore Sci-Fi.

Thank you to our faithful servant. Your closing message was spot on.

you're passion for Warhammer is infectious. Thanks again

Praise the Emporer, Baldermort speaks again...😊

I feel you sir - fist space hulk in 88 and then my first space wolves as Ragnar and Ulrich were first introduced in I think 92. I have loved this hobby for three decades and I relish your enjoyment with me sir ! Bless you 🙏

Excellent video as always Baldy. Your ending monologue though, chefs kiss. This is our hobby and everyones. Enjoy it and let the stories of war on and off the tabletop rival that which the likes of The Black Library publishes.

Great video man . very nice art used . i hope we get some Dark Eldar Eldar or Necron lore videos soon

Watched until the very end, and I can also say yes. Why have a hobby if it brings you no joy?

I think I just found my clone - had a few people say I sounded similar to you; you definatly sound like a wiser version of me! Peace Brother! May the Emperor guide your steps!

This and the mark V armor are my favorites. I like the scrappy feel and look of the mark V and the sleek efficient look of the mark VI

Loved listening to this one while I was cooking today! Your short stories are so captivating! Thanks for all your hard work!

Speaking of influences in creating Warhammer 40k, the amount of parallels to Dune is incredible. You have a titled God-Emperor, esoteric elite cults of space navigators, a religious dogmatic ban on AI after a fall from a golden age, and all of the best fighters come from the Death-worlds. It's very cool.

Well presented, as always, Sir. Definitely appreciated the message at the end as it served as a reminder to myself to do what I love and leave the rest behind.

damn that speech at the end 😢😢😢 Love you brother baldi!!!

Thank you for this gorgeous video Baldermort. I loved the lore of the mkvi But your discussion of THE HOBBY! I fully agree thank you for, as always, making me feel good to be apart of this hobby. If I may, I have a story from a game I played of 10th edition last night. My opponent was stressed, anxious and panicked, bless him. By the end of the night we were red in the face from laughter, at his tragic rolls bsr bjorn the fell handed who swept many of my units, we jokeeld it was a training contest between my salamanders and his space wolves, with bjorn having been asleep during discussion, roaring out curses that the salamanders would betray the wolves. An entirely banterous match where we had LOADS of fun. THAT is the hobby, the humour the rolls, the excited anticipation then the gasps and laughs as the vindicare assassin misses every shot he makes for an entire game. You and folxs like you, with such a MIGHTY passion got me into this hobby. My partner and I are painting Leviathan together, me and my marines, her n her lil bug babies. Im glad to share such a pass tome with so many good folks

Perfect watch whilst I open the restaurant On a Sunday morning

Brilliant video, definitely my favorite pattern as well. Well done making an entire vid on it

A bolter graze ricocheting across his beak woulda been a nice touch. That whole reason older knight helms had them.

Once again, you impress me! Loved the background music. The message at the end was outstanding! I wish more people had that mindset.

Ahh Balders.. Thank you good sir.. Your heart, good will and positivity you put into words and share like this.. You're a good soul my friend.. One of the best kinds.. I don't quite have as skillful a way with words perhaps.. But your message.. It's my message too brother.. My life's not perfect.. I'm not perfect, no-one is.. Nor should be or ever feel they have to be.. Life is a struggle at times, it throws challenges our way.. But always find a way to still be grateful.. An look on to be happy for it all.. Mixed bag as it can be at times!!.. And even when I'm not at my best in myself, spinning plates and dealing with life the best i can.. I still go out of my way to help people, support and encourage them, check in on friends and family.. Be there for people in big ways or even just the littlest ways.. If i see that i can maybe do some good.. I feel i have to try!!.. As a youngster.. The saying "Giving is it's own reward" was lost on me.. But now, as man who's grown and matured.. Known good and the bad.. As a parent now too.. Oh how i understand the beauty and love in saying!.. That attitude to life.. I know what the reward is full well now.. It's knowing rather than doing nothing, you try instead.. However you can.. You try to help, spread good, you try to make the world a better place.. My soul knows the reward.. As i humbly feel a better, and healthier person in return.. For trying.. So as i say.. It's heartwarming to hear and see another good natured soul on that very same journey!.. Thank you again Balders.. For the content.. For the pure heart and passion you want to share.. 😊😎👊👊👊

Can't find both the money and the people to play the game with, but I can watch these videos. It is a silly and wonderful universe, filled to the brim with "borrowed" ideas and concepts, but ultimately too interesting to walk away from. I do very much enjoy these stories, thank you for your efforts, Mr. Baldemort.

I don’t like that GW retconned Mark VI to be the most common armour by the end of the Heresy. I still like the Beakie, but it think it was better served as being a “specialist” set instead of mainline

A great bit of advice at the end Baldi So thank YOU for being one of the most fun aspects of the hobby

Thank you for another inspirational video. It's down to you and your fellow creators that I have taken my first steps to get back in the game!!

Wonderful Video, especially the ending. I've been playing since the change of the millennium, having picked it up during my first year the military. I still have some second hand marines from that original boxed set in my army, a squad of beakies that were handed down to me as part of my cobbled together starter force. I've always found the hobby a great way to take a vacation from the troubles of the real world, to spend some time with friends, or to just quietly sit and keep both my hands and mind busy when things felt overwhelming. As always, thank you for bringing this shared world of our to life so beautifully.

Great video and i love your accurate account of the differences between the legions and chapters.

The last 8-10 minutes are the best. Well said sir

One of your best ever! I've become a huge beaky fan and even got into 30k because of the iconic-looking Age of Darkness models. Keep up the great work!

Loved the gush part of the video,very uplifting and inspiring 😊

I don't comment a lot on videos. Your final thoughts were beautiful. Thank you.

The most beautiful and wonderful relic of the Golden Age of the hobby.

I now have a vision of Ranma Saotome with a suit of Mk VI Corvus Pattern armor on his head pecking him incessantly.That's our Good Storyteller, bridging worlds.

thank you. Your work is needed and appreciated.

Good advice. Walked away from 15 years of fantasy when it turned into AOS. That hurt but it made room to learn about 40k. My son and I are starting our first army together. God closed a door and opened a window.

Omg only just realized how many more videos of your's I've got left to watch made my day you're definitely my favorite 40k chanel keep up the good work and look forward to hearing many more stories from you and thanks for the education in the lore 😁🤘✌️

Hats off to Boldermort for making Space Marine content actually interesting!

Thanks for another amazing video sir not in to the games but the books and now that I found your channel Warhammer is definitely my favorite series and you are definitely the best of the best when it comes to story telling. You my friend are a gentleman and a scholar 👏👏👏

That message meant a lot. Thank you

I have always loved this armour, and the unique look for it. Nothing more terrifying that a marine that can do acrobatics while killing you.

The end of this was profoundly good advice for young and old. Thanks!!

Excellent as always. And perfect for a short nap that I need.

The last part of this video brought a tear to my eye.

I think it's fascinating that there were apparently plans to equip each legion with a mainstay of three styles of power armor: MkIV as the mainstay armor (replacing MkII), Terminator armor for zone mortalis engagements (replacing MkIII) and MKVI for infiltrators and "hunters"

Thank you Baldermort. I needed that today. 💙

Wasn’t expecting the ending, thank you uncle baldy

The Baldermort phenomenon continues! ! ! Another triumph Storyteller ! ! !

Well that was extremely enjoyable and the bit at the end baldermort you are truly gifted always really enjoy your videos while painting since I got back into the hobby 😊

Splendid closing, friend!
