Very awesome! ❤

“Once upon a time, I was me” ~Rogal Dorn beginning his autobiography

Now imagine if Dorn was the next loyalist Primarch to come back... a triumvirate of Guilliman, El'Johnson and Dorn would be quite something.

The praetorian of terra , the vigilant , the unyielding one . Feared by chaos and incorruptible. The embodiment of humanities iron will and courage . One of the imperiums greatest heroes

What I like most about Rogal is there wasn't anything inherently special about him. But he would not give up or take one step back. Determined to fulfill the purpose for which he was created.

The diologue between Garro and Dorn was a brilliant touch! ❤

The part of Rogal Dorn's reaction to the treachery of his brothers really hit hard.

"There is no enemy. The foe on the battlefield is merely the manifestation of that which we must overcome. He is doubt, and fear, and despair. Every battle is fought within. Conquer the battlefield that lies inside you, and the enemy disappears like the illusion he is."- The Praetorian of Terra.

Rogal Dorn built his legacy in stone. But his memory, he built in our hearts. Ave Preatorian!

As a young teenager in the early 2000s my first army was the Imperial Fists. Back then I just collected them because I liked yellow not knowing anything of their lore. Going through school I was really bad at English, but was really good at Maths and Science because I'm Dyslexic. Now as an adult I'm a fully qualified Civil Engineer. I design roads, bridges and yes even walls! Listening to this and the Imperial fists lore makes me realise I was always destined to be an Imperial Fist. Dyslexic Rogul Dawn and his team of Civil Engineering wall buddies. All like me 😁 (Edit My best mate as a kid coincidentally was an Iron Warriors player. You can't make this stuff up 🤦)

"My orders are simple, yet heed them well and preform them to the best of your ability. They are coming...kill them all." My favorite Dorn moment before the invasion of Terra.

Dorn isn't dead but is close to it. When he was pulled down, stabbed by a cultist with a poison blade, a blade that his larraman organ could not stop (see Gulliman) his hand was cut off and he was bleeding out a metal angel appeared before him, raised a skeletal hand and captured him in a pokyball. " Ah well another for my collection" said Trazyn the infinite.

Dorn you are a damn brick. Dorn: Child, you know that a brick is just a substance you need to build and fortify your house.

"Look at me when I speak to you Death Guard!" I felt so bad for Garro. Been through so much crap already. Unsure if he could even trust Dorn not to be a traitor as well. Talk about getting your world turned upside down and inside out.

“No.” - Adeptus Astartes Primogenitor, VIIth, Rogal of the House of Dorn.

Can't wait for the Greatest Primarch of all Primarch DaDornable.

Rogal Dorn is an interesting case among the Primarchs. I’m old enough to remember when Dorn, and the Fists themselves, were merely yellow Ultramarines. As I recall they were even a subset of the Ultramarines’ codex. Dorn was for a long time the basic, boring Primarch, nothing particularly notable about him, well, as boring as a Primarch could be. That’s all changed. Dorn retained his stoic personality and lack of flash, but has increased his stock by having several great duels, and getting the very rare direct kill on another Primarch. In fact, Dorn is the only loyalist to get a direct kill on a traitor Primarch. He also faced down Fulgrim, who is dangerous as hell as far as duelists go. Dorn has developed interesting relationships with his brothers, too. Aside from maybe the Lion, Dorn has a very interesting relationship with Guilliman that would be great to see expanded in the current timeline. He also has a good relationship with Vulkan. If you had asked me to rank Primarchs 10 years ago, I may have completely forgotten about Rogal Dorn. That is no longer the case. While I have always been a Lion fanboy (what a freaking time to be one, let me tell you), Dorn is now in my top 3 favorites, tied with Corax. I really have started to like his development a lot. My son is a Dorn fan, and has been since he listened to the duel with Fulgrim. “Are you really not going to try and convince me to return to the fold?” “No. I’m going to kill you.”

The amount of soul crushing pain Rogal Dorn held on his shoulders is insane.

I love the tale of Dorn, the most human of all the Emperors Sons. Great job WT, you don’t disappoint.

Rogal Dorn Is one of my third favorite Primarch 😁👍

The "No Bull Shit" Primarch. I love the lore that says the Imperial Fists wear yellow as a warning to their enemies, so they can see them and know they're about to lose.

Rogal Dorns rage at Garro was one of the top momments of 40k lore

This is amazing. Dorn needs to come back..bitter...pissed...but stern ans steadfast. Id love to see him join Robute and The Lion.

I hope Games Workshop will hire you to narrate their products. Your voice is legendary!

Have faith brothers. Our Gene Father Dorn is on a therapeutic vacation in the warp. He left a hand for us just to let us know he cares. Write your messages of love and care on it for him once you've achieved the right. Keep SIgismund and his type away or they will start worshipping it!

"One must cut what is costly to save the whole" I believe in those words, in this day and age one must be pragmatic in order to survive. This is the best KZfaq channel for motivation

I made a ttrpg for a warhammer campaign. One of my players made an Imperial Fist, so I sent him this video to inspire him.

A note for the writer: it was Mercede Oliton who truly saved Garro by recalling the purge of istvan from the halls of the vengeful spirit using her memory recording brain implants to show Dorn the proof.

Rogal Dorn is the best his story is one of my favorites in 40k I also think the Imperial Fists get a bad rap and don't garner the respect they deserve anyway the lore surround Rogal Dorn is some of the best ever written have you ever read "The Emperor's Crusader" such a fascinating read While meeting at the start of the campaign, Rogal proposes they go into the heart of the region to root out the hidden foe that must be there. The other primarchs propose going around the outside of the region and conquer the known systems. They agree to each go about it their own way and meet later to discuss findings. The IF have a gruelling campaign marked by uncertain warp travel and hit and run tactics by an enemy that appears and dissapears without trace. Communication and travel between fleets is very difficult. Eventually, Taudo of the Luna wolves arrives with a message: ‘Lord Dorn, I have brought the latest campaign movements from my primarch and others, and I’m here to ask that you provide the same in return.’ ‘Is that all? That seems a low profit for such a hazardous venture. I expected an invite to a fresh conclave, so that we can assess our progress and determine whether the current courses of action best fulfil our objectives.’ ‘That was the next part,’ said Taudo, surprised. ‘Horus has nominated a star system that would make a suitable rendezvous and asks that you meet him there. At your convenience, of course.’ ‘It’s never convenient to abandon a campaign unfinished.’ ‘Horus wanted me to-’ ‘Nevertheless, I can’t rule out some development or discovery that may change our thinking. Given the difficulties we have navigating back to the periphery, how long do you think it will take to reach this rendezvous?’ ‘Three or four weeks, Lord Dorn.’ Taudo glanced around the massive strategium. ‘Assuming the Phalanx warp travels about the same speed as a battleship.’ ‘That won’t be necessary, the Phalanx will be staying here as central command. I will take the Herald of Dawn, to minimise disruption and delay to the Legion’s advance.’ Gidoreas stepped up, fist banging to his chestplate. ‘I will begin the preparations for the Huscarls to move to the Herald of Dawn. What other orders do you have, my lord?’ ‘Have Aeolus lead a detachment of Templars to join us. My brothers will have their champions with them, I should have some of mine.’ The spectacle of the parading legionaries and the commencement speech of Horus had ended, the entourages of the primarchs sent back to separate garrisons while the champions and captains accompanied their lords to the council. It was clear that the gene-father of the Luna Wolves had wanted to emulate, on a far lesser scale, the pomp and importance of the Solar Conclave. Just over one Terran year on from that auspicious gathering, it struck Gidoreas as somewhat premature to be counting victories. It was particularly irksome to do so while knowing that navigating back to the rest of the Legion heading towards the heart of the Occluda Noctis would take even more time and effort than coming out. Gidoreas had every confidence that his battle-brothers and their allies could continue the campaign, but always there was the nagging knowledge of the four lost expeditions. What if the cause of those calamities emerged while the primarch was absent? Evidently Lord Dorn felt similarly. Several times his patience wore thin and he pressed his brothers to quicken their recounting of past endeavours to talk about the future. It was clear that Fulgrim, Horus and the Lion had each brought more star systems into compliance than the VII - in the case of the Dark Angels nearly twice as many, made possible by fresh recruits and supplies from Caliban. While regaling the assembly with an account of the fall of a system renamed Liberata Majoris, the Lion espoused the virtue of his chosen approach. ‘As you keep heckling for us to proceed to the matter of strategising, Rogal, perhaps now you would be willing to accept that the premise of your previous argument was flawed.’ He stood and leaned across the broad table that separated the Legion commanders, its surface covered by an immense map of the Occluda Noctis. The Lion’s hand moved across swathes of stars at the outer limits and then to the thick but short wedge of systems that had fallen to Dorn. ‘The evidence is plain to all eyes present.’ Gidoreas’ gaze swept over the other attendants, meeting the eyes of some. Sejanus’ brow furrowed a little at the Lion’s remarks while Keyshen was flexing his gauntleted fingers, thoughts far distant. Eidolon barely registered the Huscarl, eyes never leaving the Lion, full lips pursed in contemplation. Gidoreas felt a few of his fellow Seventh stirring, the beginnings of complaint rumbling in their chests. ‘You have castles on Caliban, I believe?’ Dorn replied quietly, cutting off any retort from his gene-sons. ‘Many, with the citadel of Aldurukh, our fortress, one of the greatest fastnesses in the Imperium, I would say.’ ‘And I have no doubt you have besieged and taken some number of them?’ The Lion hesitated, thinking the question a trick but unable to see it. ‘I fought in many sieges, on both sides of the wall. Even more enemy strongholds have fallen to me since the Emperor lifted me from Caliban.’ ‘And in all of those campaigns, when you had the castle surrounded, the environs secured or pillaged, that’s when you counted victory. Am I right?’ ‘Of course not!’ The Lion’s mane of hair fell about his shoulders as he shook his head. ‘A fortress is only undone once the attacker is inside and never a second earlier.’ ‘Then we are in agreement.’ Dorn sat back, arms crossed. The Lion glanced at Horus, who looked on impassively, and received only a raised eyebrow in support from Fulgrim. ‘Make plain your accusation, Rogal,’ the Lion demanded, standing with fists on the table. As he did so, the primarch looked across the map again and Gidoreas could almost see the light of understanding coming to his eyes. He jabbed a finger towards the blank centre of the map. ‘You think this a castle?’ ‘I think the analogy works,’ Dorn replied evenly. ‘I would not like to engage in pedantry about it.’ The Lion rubbed his bearded chin as he regarded his brother and then turned his attention back to the map. ‘One does not charge headlong at the gates, Rogal,’ he said, lifting his gaze from the star chart. ‘One scouts. Counts the defenders and reckons the defences before formulating a plan.’ ‘What if one could attack swiftly enough that the defenders have no warning, and you have a chance of finding the fortress with its gate open and unbarred? One can ride around and around the walls out of arrow range all day and not make a single pace of progress towards victory. No matter how well scouted, the wall still remains and someone must break it or scale it. It requires courage and fortitude to meet the problem swiftly and decisively.’ ‘This is courage?’ growled the Lion, his finger jabbing the wedge of systems taken by the VII. ‘Stumbling from one enemy to the next and hitting whatever comes in front of you?’ ‘Perhaps we should rise for-’ began Fulgrim, throwing a look towards Horus. Lupercal shook his head, his attention moving from the Lion to Dorn and back again. ‘No, ill words are like meat on the fire. It does no good to leave them untended, for they will grow more heated and tougher to swallow, or else turn to ashes altogether.’ ‘Lord Dorn,’ Gidoreas said quietly. ‘Your brother seems to be spoiling for a fight.’ The primarch turned and looked at his Huscarl captain, confusion written in his stern features. ‘You suggest that we risk the future of the campaign because one of my brothers cannot accept a counterpoint?’ Gidoreas meant a literal fight. He saw it in the faces of brothers he sent to the duelling cages to settle their differences. Honour had been pricked and there was nothing that would heal that wound except capitulation. His lord, almost bereft of that kind of pride, did not see when it was taking control of others. Before he could warn Dorn, his gene-father stood up, addressing Fulgrim and Horus as much as the Lion. ‘A year has passed since we were sent by the Emperor to claim these stars.’ He looked at the map, from one end to the other, as he continued. ‘The Seventh have not travelled as far as any of your expeditions. We have not fought as many battles. We have brought fewer worlds to compliance, by a margin. I return again, as I did when last we spoke, to the command of the Emperor. To bring His light to those systems that cannot see it. To shine enlightenment into the darkness left by Old Night. Most importantly, to vanquish the power that destroyed the previous expeditions.’ Now Dorn fixed upon the Lion, one fist clasped in the other hand as he was often posed. ‘To go forwards, that was the command. To succeed where the other expeditionary fleets had not. You retrace their steps and call it success. Look at this map and tell me, brother of Caliban, which of us has travelled the furthest from the Emperor’s light? Who among us has actually braved the real darkness of the Occluda Noctis?’ ‘Bravery is it?’ snarled the Lion, clenching a fist. ‘You think I choose an easier road?’ ‘The walls of the castle will not be breached by scouting alone. What other reason have you got to excuse your reluctance?’ ‘Enough, Rogal!’ snapped Horus, slamming a hand on the table. ‘No, it is not enough,’ growled the Lion. ‘It is too much! I am not only a coward, but I am also lazy, it seems. You leave out your true accusation, Rogal. That with my laxity I disobey the Emperor’s command.’

This was amazing! The voice fits a grizzled Astartes perfectly. 10/10 - Perfect Bedtime story

FINALLY some Rogal Dorn content - my dreams have been answered, and my wishes have come true. Warrior Tier, you are my genie and my bottle 💯👏

Dan Abbnets fleshing out of Dorn making him the most Human primarch in Saturnine was the best thing in Siege of Terra

Dorns loyality and determination is unmatched.

Right off the bat, when I hear the name Excoriators Chapter, I'm reminded of the pain the battle brothers subject their fists to.

"siege of terra" Dorn: They are coming, kill them all. best speech ever!

This truely show's the strength of Nathaniel Garro. Then the character of Dorn.

9:38 fucking spine chiller! I can't imagine somebody else doing that delivery.

Okay. This video proves that we need Vox and WarrierTier to upload videos of them just arguing about anything.

Best 40k art channel out there, I say this because this, alongside your other stuff, is truly art.

Brother, This is absolutely amazing.. Vox in the void also did a splendid job. The Pretorian of Terra lives within you both. Can't wait for the Iron warriors. I'll be waiting brothers.

Holy fuck, man. I've never been prouder to be a Son of Dorn. Henry should hire you to write speeches, my dude

Absolutely loved this, fists have always been my favourite chapter, from their colour scheme to their duality of fortifying and siege breaking. Recently got into playing heresy and so am more clued in to their actual lore and the more I find the more I'm cemented in my belief that they are the best chapter.

Honestly the best 40k channel there is. the execution is perfect every time

Excellent video, brother. Another testament to a loyal son of the Emperor. I hope Rogal Dorm gets to come back, as well. Would make for an interesting storyline.

We need Rogal Dorn to return to the current setting in Warhammer 40k

It's more tragic given The End and The Death that Dorn was swallowed into the Warp. The scene of him carrying his father will be one of the best in the series.

Leutin09’s channel is for the head. Warrior Tier’s is for the heart.

Beautiful.... I had goosebumps towards the end. Thanks for doing this, you are awesome. For the Emperor!

Archamus Cadwalder Camba Diaz These men took not one step back. These men stood, with humanity, as astartes, as humans.

"Primarch-Progenitor, to your glory and the glory of him on Earth!".

I can't wait for the iron Cage book to happen, But what do you guys think?

I’m kind of new to 40k, but Rogal seems to be the Stannis Baratheon of Warhammer to me.

This was amazing. Great work. With the return of the Lion many speculate which loyalist Primarch will return next and I hope is Dorn.

Forgive my absence brothers, i have been busy raising a new astartes brought into the world 🥰, i heard the tale of dorn was being told so came to hear his legend. Wonderful video Brother Tier, absolutely beautiful, i will be visiting your library mkre frequently Tier as i have some catching up to do. As always brother, may your name be whispered in the emporers ear.

This voice acting is professional level.

Another motivation for working out, thank you brother...for everything

Once again this channel provides 40k content that is as well researched as it is executed, with a delivery that should make Black library feel second rate. Keep it up. For sure will donate.

I'm always impressed at how you manage to make even a child of Isha like me admire the monkeighs. Great story, great songs, great voice, as ever! I'll admit i'm impatient for the day we'll get Vulkan's story... Though not as much as I am for more aeldari content ^^

Glory for you, Primarch-Progenitor! And glory for him, who sits The Golden Throne on Terra! Hey! A purity seal of approval on an entry about The Preatorian of Terra from Valrak! That's a high merit of praise, indeed.

I have no fucking clue, how you managed to make these videos so majestic.

He'll be back. Don't think he's dead

Brilliantly crafted, well done. 💎

Wow. Amazed at the voice act and presentation. Brilliant!

“The best offense is a good defense.” “NOBODY SAYS THAT!”

Dorn. My Favorite Primarch of my 2nd favorite chapter.

Another magnificent video, each time the stories of the imperium’s heroes are shared by a master storyteller!

Love that you teamed up with VOX for this one. I love both your work very much.

"I have never quite come to terms with my status. Does that surprise you? I see what I am capable of and what is expected of me, and I shudder. The mere fact of me frightens me sometimes." That single short monologue of Rogal Dorn to Locan in the majestic voice of Toby Longworth is what got me into Warhammer. :) Never knew anything about it before, obsessed since!

Warrior tier, if you do Guilliman next I feel a combo of heresy and 40k Guilliman would be a good idea, to show how he went from a proud son of the emperor to a depressed and resentful man, horrified of what’s become of the imperium, that the emporer see’s his sons as tools, wishing he had his brothers by his side, but still wanting to save the imperium.

I watched it so many times now, it’s so awesome. I get goosebump’s everytime. I hope you do this with other Primarchs 😁

Thank you for the effort you put into these. They are wonderful.

Love hearing your stuff once they come out. Great work!

Incrediable reading, very powerful this placed a tear in eye, and courage in my heart.

Always a pleasure to see from what perspective you cover these stories, thanks as always

This is so well put together, well done!

Hey Tier, not to get too mushy on ya but been following for a while and just wana say it’s been incredible to see this channel grow. It’s so deserved, you make Warhammer come ALIVE. Anyways can’t wait to see what you do next 👍🏼 For the Angel 🩸

Absolutely love your videos, the effort and craft put into them are clearly evident; everything is always on point, the music, editing, and of course voicing.

Absolutely amazing! Thank you!

This was awesome ! More please 👍

Once again epic storytelling! Please keep them coming!

Was really looking forward to this one. Did not disappoint. Awesome.

I love this video. It makes me happy to see a video about my Imperial Fists gene father.

Beautifully done and truly stirring!

You do such a great job. I love it. Thank you for doing my favorite chapter and primarch.

I suddenly want to see Josh Brolin cast to play this character.

Dude I almost cried 😭💛, Good job brother!

Epic tales as always.... would love a narration of Gaunts Ghosts

Another fantastic addition. Rogal the God of handing out Ls. Ask Alpharius... oh wait . Well ask the snake man. Siggy and dorne not only killed almost all of the Phoenix guard, Dorne clapped those snakey cheeks so hard slanesh even wintched in pain.

Crimson fists and black templars patiently waiting

In the words of Rogal Dorn :"Yey. My favorite."

I almost cried at times, well done

Warrior Tier you never disappoint! I cannot wait ❤❤❤❤

This is the second viseo ive had the pleasure and the privilege to enjoy and i say this tpwith the utmost adoration,seriousness,and respect you are a story teller on par with the best documentarys have to offer and while the beloved fiction that is war hammer is not history, you have perfected your art and i for one watch your career with the greatest of intrest. In summery you are skilled and you should keep making the cesspool of the internet better -420 man

Yet another theatrical masterpiece.👀👌🏿🔥

I joined the ranks of the Imperial Fists back in '86, (1st edition, Rouge Trader) I've counted myself as a son of Dorn ever since. I viewed this historical documentary on my portable voxcaster, and I am impressed with it's quality and accuracy, It does justice to the memory and legacy of our father, Rogal Dorn.

Excellent works as always!

I am so happy that i was able to watch this channel grom from the verry beginning. From Space marine motivation videos,through story of Great Angel up until story of Great Dorn himself. It has been an awesome journey so far and I am looking forward for more😊

This ist Art❤. Every video you post brings me a bit closer to Warhammer and i love it.

Awesome. The Garro voice was outstanding!

His Primarch power was the Indomitable Human Spirit
