Lol that's such a great description 😂

Say what you want. It worked. My iron warriors out here making new ranks

I am indifferent towards the legion itself, disregarding Honsou. But Perturabo frustrates me to no end. Dude is seriously overhyped and overglorified. Employed Krieg tactics with astartes, murdered any commander that offered a more efficient solution, and whined about how hard his job was when he didn't even lift a finger to alter his tactical approach. Also employed an archaic disciplinary tactic that was found to be completely and utterly ineffective by the ancient Terran empire that first used it, and had his head rammed so far up his own ass to account for the possibility that his legion may hate him after employing decimation. Perturabo is as bitch-made as they come. Ferrus Manus was everything he claims himself to be. Perturabo's legion, however, well... let's just say they'd have been much better off if Perturabo never made it off Olympia alive. Perturabo ruined his own legion's psychology much in the same manner that Angron ruined the World Eaters. But at least Angron has the excuse of the Butcher's Nails clouding his judgement. Perturabo on the other hand had no such excuse, even less, considering his intellectual ability.

@@venerablebrothergoriate5844 I'm sure seeing the Eye of Terror since youth, without knowing what it is, will fuck anyone up

He isnt overhyped. The Iron Warriors got the hardest and most demanding battles in the great crusade, one should remember that and tell me about the other Primarchs as much as you want but the sheer fact that with the casualties they edured he was able to get a constant supply of new astates is Gorillaman level logistics. Also he planed the drop Site Massacre and coordinated Terra while Horus was busy trying to overpsychic the emperor (lol) , he breached the palace and went away when he realised that A he was to be used as cannonfodder again and what kind of degenerates his traitor brothers were. Also he broke the Imperial Fists legion, say about him what you will but he is the best commander among the traitors @@venerablebrothergoriate5844

😂😂😂😂

Yeah - that was my reaction

@@hatter3555 mine too D:

As great Primarch Rogal Dorn once said: *NO*

Understandable.

😂😂😂😂,😮

Ohhhh noooooo....

Ah, my friend, but remember. This is 40K. Whenever something horrific seems to be gone, we must add the qualifier "for now"

What gave you the idea that, honsou didn’t take note of his research and not possibly shared them with his fellow renegades? Have you forgotten the night lords or emperors children? Who knows how long the warpsmith has been doing this.

@@ATart6 Because Honsou was literally at war with his fellow iron warriors. Because the daemonaculabla requires infastructure, something that both the Emperor's Children and the Night Lords have no interest in. Because the Daemoaculaba was a failure.

@@dadab22 you make a very valid point. Yet capturing those geneseeds didn’t take a lone effort. I fear the other surviving warpsmiths the helped honsou, likely shared this kind of experiment.

@@ATart6 Potentially, but I would imagine that the other warpsmiths would try a different method. One that is far more efficient, and requires less infastructure, and of course, doesn't produce a small army of rejects that rise up against them.

Yeah... you are being "used" by the Iron warriors in an industrial way. It's horrifying, but once you're done, you're done. Drukharis is basically a forever hellish torture, for their amusement and well-being :(

I don't know if I would have to agree. Yes, being endlessly tortured 4 shits and giggles is awful, but I'd like to think that you at least have a chance to a somewhat decent Slave Life, as minuscule as that chance may be. You will probably get tortured now and again, and you would have to survive in the Arena, but you still have some autonomy. Your actions matter, and, depending on how you choose to conduct yourself, you may even be able to better your circumstances. Being a total Masochist would probably also help while staying with the Dark Eldar. On the other Side of the Spectrum, you can be a industrial Product that get's fattend and then skinned, while furthering a process so foul that even a completly indoctrinated and brainwashed Autist starts gagging. Sure, there is a chance that exactly the same happens to you when you are a Slave to the Drukhari. But it's a chance, not a certainty. And the Aspect of Chance, of Choice, matters a lot. Or at least I'd like to think so.

At least you're killed in the process of your body being turned into protein slurry

​@@RaaBae If you're a masochist they'll figure out a way to make you not one I guarantee it. The Drukhari are there to make sure you suffer and don't have a nice time. They would deny you any kind of masochistic pleasure and you wouldn't really be able to pretend like you hate it since they'd know whether they were getting pain fuel out of you in that moment. If you're so much of a masochist they can't get anything out of you they'd either kill you as you won't be providing suffering to them (and you wanted to avoid dying) or Commoragh or they'd be intrigued and find a way to make you suffer with more passion and dedication than any other slave. You'd just be more fun to break to them and I doubt you want the greatest of torturers with millennia of experience ensuring the worst possible outcome for you specifically. Not a torture you'd find fun in even the slightest way unless giving you that fun would be more catastrophic to you later. Not only that like I said they live for millenia and have all the experience in the universe with knowing what will provide the worst existence to any given slave there. You'd go in hoping to become a slave instead and they'd be able to read that with ease I'm sure. They wouldn't make you a slave if that's what you were hoping for. I think you're greatly underestimating exactly how inescapable your own personal and horrific hell would be under the care of a race that only exists to make sure it happens. I'm 100% taking a relatively quick and indifferent death over a well maybe the horrible torture-you-forever monsters might just possibly perhaps not reveal their true power level to me when I visit uwu The only thing crazier than your take is your confusing use of capitalization like what's going on there? Are you okay?

The people who got captured to be used for any part of the daemonculaba process are traumatized to a zombielike state. The Dark Eldar will make sure you never reach that point, that you are fully aware and screaming for the entirety of it.

Not me! I'd suggest Baldermort's intro to the night lords first. You don't just recommend daemonculaba.

I did few videos ago.... Boy that escalated quickly

@@_d-- you sick puppy, I salute you

Also: Honsou kicking a greater daemon of khorne awake and telling the very angry daemon "hey slacker, there's wizards out there that you should be chewing" and it works. It's like watching a horror thriller and in the last 5 minutes it becomes the Naked Gun.

If you like stealing flesh at midnight, if you have no membranes

I see why, I tears up towards the end😭😮‍💨

FFS, don't remind me about that arc. One of the few arcs that I prefer Griffith.

Really, what did you like about it? Honestly curious.

As heinous as this, it has a purpose. It is not callous for the sake of callousness (not that the iron warriors would not savor the suffering of their victims) but it has a dark purpose. It is industrial malice, professional evil. The drukhari's purpose IS your suffering, and to that end they get inventive.

@@johnj.spurgin7037IDK, this kind of thing always struck me as somewhat out of character for the Iron Warriors, if not Honsou himself, but more a Fabius Bile type of thing to do. I wouldn’t be even remotely surprised if Bile had drawn up the whole daemonculaba procedure and given it to Honsou to make use of.

@@venerablebrothergoriate5844 you'd think that, but the hate of perturabo and the twisting influence of the warp are vicious things. I can totally see 39K+ iron warriors doing it.

I gotta give the people what they want😎

​@@TwentyTwoHyagigachadette move.

​@@TwentyTwoHyalove you too hehe 🥰🤭

You have a great day as well! Stay safe!

23:28 the what the F$%K am i watching face

Yeah this is a bedtime lullaby story for dark eldar children at best.

Probably one of the most terrifying descriptive phrases I've heard in relation to the Dark Eldar: "You pray you die. You don't."

This is a STRONG contender for worst fate though. Maybe a close second?

​@@johnj.spurgin7037i thing contester is having your ship swallowed whole by tyrradid ship and watch as it slowly gets digested.

The worst fate is to be an aeldari (of any faction) who dies in real space without a soulstone handy. You become a part of Slaanesh and are tormented for all eternity.

They just don’t kill you, they play Drukhari games with you, and then they kill you! And then they revive you to take it from the top.

I mean with Chaos there's a matter of torturing your soul too

Nah. It's probably just desensitization. With the amount of gore in shows and videogames, living monster wombs are sort of meh. The demonculaba isn't even the worst version of this horror. At some point, gore just stops being horrible. Oh no, another sea of corpses and blood. How original.

You have my deepest respect for making it trough..I couldn't do it.

Yeah. It MIGHT be the most horrifying thing covered in canon text though? I don't recall any drukhari stories going into comparable detail.

Sure, but the details of the description of demonculaba make it, in my opinion, the most gruesome thing I've read in 40k

​@@johnj.spurgin7037isnt there a book focused on the dark eldar that goes into unnecessary detail regarding an archon torturing a toddler? If I remember correctly it's part of a series of books focused exclusively on commoragh; I couldn't tell you its name though it has been a while since I read it

@@IXSICNESS yeah, that'd do it. I wonder why it doesn't have the same notoriety as daemonculaba.

Worst thing detailed in text. Drukhari are PROBABLY worse, but they haven't had their deplorable exploits covered in detail, and thank the emperor for that.

I gotta give the people want they want 😭

I consider myself as a person who doesn’t easily get unsettled by sci fi horror, but Daemonculaba is DEFINITELY something that I’m traumatized to this day by.

Same here😭😭🤍

wait really? how does that connect? I'm just curious.

@@TheBroGamer14082 it's because women are more prone to emotional distress than men.

@@WhineotGames aight

@@TheBroGamer14082 They aren't connected at all, the geneseed required to make space marines is based on a male template, therefore females cannot receive it. That's the in-universe explanation, really it's just because space marines were created in the 80's and making female action heroes wasn't much of a thing (unfortunately) back then.

@@Tulipses Yeah. I remember one of the guys that worked with GW at the time did design female space marines then but they weren't selling much. Perhaps they could be brought back as one of cawl's discoveries similar to the creation of the primaris. GW could just release a series of FSM heads, their armor doesnt have to be any different.

Wasn’t honsou created from stolen imperial fists geneseed though?

​@@HistoritorJimaldusPretty sure he is. Made from some Imperial Fist Geneseed and quite young for an Astartes isn't he?
