THUNDERFIRE CANNONS IN WARHAMMER 40000 The mobile Heavy firepower unit of the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines. It has to be operated by a tech marine. All tales are fan fiction to ease the listener into the topic covered and never meant to be considered as cannon. Ever. Its just a bit of fun.

“Brother forget the heavy flamer, bring out...to whom it may concern.” -the tech marine probably

Always enjoy the lore but, for me the best part is always the introductory prologue! Truly, you should consider a career in writing fiction and then doing your own audiobooks.

"Artillery adds dignity, to what would otherwise be an ugly brawl." - Frederick the Great M2 "I have travelled far and seen much. Yet nothing warms my heart so much as the sight of a gun so massive that its fury makes the very world tremble." -Captain Darnath Lysander, 1st Company, Imperial Fists 'Big guns never tire, isn't that what he always says?''' - Ardaric Vaanes Renegade, Ex Red Corsair, Ex Raven Guard Shadow Captain 'So it's said,' - Honsou, The Halfbreed, Warsmith from the Iron Warriors Legion

Imperial Philosophy: Can we make it bigger..? Mechcanicus: Yes Astartes: Do it! ---------- Mechcanicus: No Astartes: Heresy!

Rotary barrel, high caliber, auto-fire artillery with programmable detonation. As an infantryman, this makes by blood run cold. Great presentation, though, as always!

The WiFi is stable but still temperamental at times especially when I have not preyed over it with holy oil

The Tech marine surveyed the battle field, processing through advance targeting scanners and auspex arrays. He has chosen his target. The Thunder fire cannon rotated. homing in on its target. Player roles a 1. The shell is let loose and hits a tree 50 yards away. The Tech marine kicks the Cannon with his ceramite boot, "bloody useless piece of crap".

Tho Nurgle has blessed me that does not mean I'll miss an Upload

Glad to hear Baldy going stronger than ever after coming back from bootcamp!

*"Aaahh!~ I love the smell and sound of Thunderfire Cannons in the morning!"* - Some Tech-Marine (Probably)

Today in 40k, a Nerd marime lamments about not being able to play with the cool kids.

Nice, a really cool way to start the week! Thanks Baldermort

There is one truth in a battlefield, and that those who have more firepower will win the battle.

Thank you for another video!

I’m definitely adding this to my cart lmao

If the God-Emperor fights on the side of those with more artillery, then no wonder the Imperium has stood for so long.

The last time I was this early, the II and the XI Legions were still active! Thank you once again for the tasty lore, Lord Baldermort, and to Lady B as well for the music/sound!

Dammit Baldy you’re fantastic lore and palpable love for the hobby makes it so hard not to add to my box of shame! I may just run out and order a thunder fire cannon for my Imperial Suns chapter now xD Fantastic work as always, my only regret is that I didn’t find Your channel sooner!

I love those lore videos about vehicles and creatures...

"Attach tank treads to that giant cannon and let's go blast some greenskins"

A yes, the Thunderfire Cannon, 40mm BOFORS MkII's Big Brother, lugging shells into the enemy, whilst clattering through the mud on heavy tracks. Truly, a fierce companion for a Tech-Marine and a devastating enemy to those disgusting xenos and heretics!

Wonderful work! Hope you do more Tech-Marines!

Never used one and probably won't ever now, but your work as always is exemplary.

So this is the machine that fires Angry Marines at the enemy yes?

I was steeling myself in case I once more felt bad for a tank! Another great entry Baldemort!

Haven't heard of this one before, interesting.

So I have this idea for a video series.. It's called "Blood Angel Try Outs," or maybe "So You Think You're A Blood Angel," and it's people hurting themselves intentionally over and over again, maybe like pulling a toenail out, or stubbing their toe and walking on a carpet made of legos. Grimdark Programming! I think it's gonna take off.

And that's why I hate Santa, never brought me what I asked for...

Daaaante I wanna go rip and tear with my brothers! Dante - "No, your better at fixing things." *Sad blood angel noises*

New meaning to thunder struck

Another great episode brother Baldermort, I’d never considered sympathy for the artillery, stepped back from the bloody edge of combat. I enjoy anything that expands my perspective, thanks.

Techmarines need love too. I always found it interesting the position of the Techmarines in the chapters. Dual Loyalty between Mars and the Chapter... Kept at bay by their own brethren. Respect the Techmarine.

techmarine needs a hug

You sir are an unmatched paragon of warhammer lore, I enjoy every video you produce for us. Cheers 🥂

Great video and I have not seem another cover this vehicle so Great job as always. Your story telling is phenomenal

These give me such joy to listen to. Thank you for doing this

Gotcha, Warhammer 40K's version of a beefed up self-propelling MK-19 platform, very nice! Now added to my wish-list!

Another informative and supremely entertaining triumph, Storyteller ! ! !

One of my fondest memories is with these guns. Dunno about now but as a member of the legion of Russ we do not use these pieces. One game however there was one and a pod full of blood claws decided to go play with it. It took about 4 turns to finally catch it but they ran that gun and poor tech marine all over the board monty python style. It may have taken forever but while the youngsters were keeping it busy it left my wolf guard plenty of time to negotiate axe head to head with the iron hands command headquarters and get a head of their captain in said negotiations.

You have the voice that captivates your audience. This is why I so enjoy your channel.

hmmm, honestly, he sounds like the perfect Chaos victim. "Chaos: Hey, Marine! Heard U were like... jelous, n stuff?" Marine: "Mayhaps....?" "Chaos: yeah, if you'd just be a champ and shorten the fuses on your rounds to explode 1500 meters further back, over towards those guys right there? those who you are jealous about? Yeah, That'd be greeeeat. we have blades you can have afterwards"

Awesome, ever think about doing the dark angels nephilim and dark talon fighters someday? Their pretty cool aircraft in lore and in looks.

Ah, the Artillery piece that hits with the power of a Bolter 😑 well done GW.

I have built at least 3 of these monsters back when they were still made of metal, every time saying "never again".... at least the last one was mine, but sadly never got to field it before moving on to Warmachine.

Signs you been playing too much Astra Militarum. You start to think of 60 inch range artillery as intermediate range, because it can't hit stuff on another table.

Dear uncle Baldy (and your many talented retinue), bringing the Thunderfire cannon to our attention seems like such a lovely idea for a Monday, definitely sets off the week on the right foot, so what have you got up your sleeve for later eh? Lets hope this sleeve of yours is as big as a wizards hehe; thank you sir, another very happy member of your fascinated crew is smiling

I was watching Babymetal's Headbanger and then I came over here and you sit me down behind a thunderfire cannon, in the boots of a blood angel techmarine? How do you expect me to not succumb to the rage?

Your voice is epic for these i love listening To your work Thank you!

OooOoO these are some of my favorite toys that his holiest angels have. Ive been starting on my Homebrew Imperial Fists successor chapter after your astounding video on them all those moons ago my dear Bard, so thank you. I truly cannot wait to get my hands on some of these for my sons. It will truly add some Oomph for their defenses!! Praised be to The Emperor

I've been taking a break from your channel since the blood angel contemptor dreadnought video to let your content stack up a bit so i can binge it... 3 months of waiting was just incredibly worthwhile! Keep up the amazing work :D

You may hide but the omnissiah sees all.

I keep seeing flashes of the GW 40K artwork from that recent survey, i think i've been cursed by malicious scrap code ... ... thankfully Baldermort's fun vids helps ease the suffering. My thanks.

Neat

HELLS YES THE THUNDER CANNON BWAHHAHAHAHA

Was literally just thinking about picking one of these up for my deathwatch army, suddenly this pops up in my feed

True sons of the Angel

We are so lucky to have so many choices for 40K lore. This ones the best though.

speeaking of: I cannot remember having heard you ever talked much about the Emperor. could you do a few lore videos of him?

You've still got it Mr. B. & Mrs. B. Have you the means to check sales spikes after one of your videos? I would confidently propose there would be a correlative increase of purchased after one of your videos. Thus justifying a portion of the sales , at least negotiating a position in marketing or a suitable creative writing job! Keep going you two! You're work is consistantly stellar! It's the world around us that's falling apart...all the best.

I nearly caught this in time today 😂

Ah, gimme the good stuff.

baldermort: the grimdark shakespeare. best damn storyteller of my lifetime.

Great video

You should cover mole mortors sometime.

Thank you 😁

The only time i've felt any semblence of pity or remorse for the traitor, xenos, or neverborn was while learning about this weapon.

DAKADAKADAKADAKA.....er I mean concentrate fire.

I did wonder why there weren't any whirlwinds in Gladius...

Thank you for the videos. I'm sorry I cannot watch as often as I want 😔

So....when do we get these on custodes jet bikes? 😂 New codex is inbound! Awe snap!

Dear Grid Coordinates

Nice lil snack 👍🏻👍🏽

Interesting. I though that all marines fought regularly on the front line…I didn’t know there were support Marines. I just though they did their work on equipment between battles…..thanks for the insight

Daka daka!

I need one too😅 I have the servo turret..but I think I need this one

U R A FUCKING LENGEND BROTHER YOUR INTRO MUSIC IS SO COOL

Team fortress enginer trailer playing in the background

GGG !! = Good ! Great !! Godlike !!! A good 1 , as ALWAYS !!! Take the cannon and give them THUNDER , FIRE and HELL !!!!(Oh and do find some time 4 fun) TOO-DE-LOO!!!!!!!

Your the best baldy

Baldermort is rad! Enddddd quote!

Just wondering, what is the song in the intro?

WITH BLADE AND BOLTER FIRE

*plays Grot shield ...

That does make me curious though. Are space marine techmarines recruited straight from the Mechanicus? Or are raw recruits assigned to the role once becoming initiates?

MASSIVETHUNDERBOOMSTICK!!!!!

Artillery is called "The King Of Battle" for a reason.... _Make the rubble BOUNCE._

2 minutes since it uploaded and there is already 29 views. Wow

This is what happens when a Space Marine and a Tech Pristess have a child

Pew pew pew!!!

I absolutely hate how much shit the Tech Marines get in-verse from both Astartes and the AdMech when in reality, it SHOULD be that both sides are very thankful for them bridging the two cultures. Tech Marines are awesome.

You know, if people like baldy dropped the lore aspect of their channels to focus exclusively/mostly on short stories, a lot of people would like it better

for the emperor !

Shweet 👍

I need three of those... Not models for the game, but three of them for my home. Blood for the Blood God Skulls for the Skull Thrown Farts for the Inquisition! Comments for the Algorithm!

Been asking which weapons of the space marines people like, the thunderfire is up there but it seems you can’t go wrong with a good terminators heavy assault cannon, it seems people love the deathwing’s loadout for terminators too... but enough of the sons of the lion, it’s the sons of sanguinius’ time

Love the lore but sad these have been beaten within an inch of their lives by the nerf bat. As of today their S4 AP - D1, they have the same damage output as boltguns and that pisses me off more than Angron attending Anger Management

Wait... is this Cannon? 😉

Al go Rhythm

Brraaattttt
