In this video I talk about Xenos in general and what is the Imperium's attitude towards them. I also mention some of the biggest (and smallest) xenos threats of 40k. Enjoy!!!

Things are a bit more funky in old Rogue Trader. There's worlds where humans live in peace with minority ork populations, and places where an eldar and a space dwarf can hang out at the local bar. There's more room for things to be relaxed and silly in between the ultraviolence. When GW writes a story where faction A and B get into a temporary truce, it's often by introducing faction C halfway through. Usually chaos, a lot of people can agree chaos are unreasonable nutters.

Listening to Warhammer 40K fan music or lore videos makes doing yard work so much more tolerable. PURGING WITH MY KIIIIN while chopping down these ugly-ass posonous shrubs is very satisfying. I don't even play the game and I love this stuff.

Actually, there is a mistake in the informations - There was examples of peacefull cohabitation and even information "trading" with xenos during the "dark age of technology" - the Interex. Also, it is said, the bolter, as a type of weapon originated as a gun against (extremly more than human) resilient Orks and/or armoured targets with softer tissue inside.

That's true. However, I think I said the xenophobia applied to the majority of cases during history, not 100% of the cases. Heck, orks and humans might be best friends somewhere.

True. But existence of minor, but quite military strong human empires willing officially cohabitate with xenos, the main reason for existence of man of stone and man of iron, the fact, that knight suits were ment to counter local threats and piratical raids of xenos, and the reason for original superheavy tanks and apcs of humanity (harsh environment where you need a hulking gun and gazilion of anti infantry machinegun nests, sugests the human penetration to space was far from peacefull. Not to mention, there is a pretty big chance, the pariah genom and gene was introduced into human genom by necrons/necrontyrs.

Irae Maeviir right! The quality of both video and audio is stunning. The fades, timing and crisp of production is top notch. His spoken word is well articulated, metered yet not boring. Not to mention you can tell the confidence he has been earned. This isnt read from a wiki, it's a grasp of the lore supplemented with notes facts like dates, word explanations and perfect use of synonyms and context.

Thanks for the kind words. In the defense of the writers of the wikia, I am actually narrating a lot of it from there though. I mostly rearrange the info sometimes and edit some paragraphs so they are easier to comprehend :)

Kind of funny that You pointed out the expansion of the Empire versus the ",aggressiveness" of the various versions of Xenos which already inhabited the various realms of the MAY as a " reason" for the Imperial Edicts and Protocols which would sanction such Campaigns of Extermination. Soooooo verrrry Grim! Also, and perhaps I missed it....what about the once-forbidden-mentioning of the Squats????

It's good that my homeworld is off warplanes too far out of the way for imperial expansion but we are making highfalutin the buy fan constantly come here and restock and leave planets for greater consumption since Leviathan and the tyranids as a whole don't rely on Warp

There's worlds where xenos archeotech is part of the local terraforming engines. They could smash them up, but they don't know how to preserve the world if they do. Archeological traces of xenos and pre-imperial humans are scattered here and there.

I realize this is a bit late but vvhat can be inerred about the rangdan is that they had vveapons that could pierce Astartes povver armor & they possesed either armor or a carapace that vvas resilient against bolters & perhaps even as good or better than povver armor.They also had some means of space travel as they did inhabit a vvhole system but there is vvhere it canbe inferred that their vveakness vvas, either they had non vvarp capable ships or their ships vvere lacking in arms or manouverability & it seems their planets vvere subject to exterminatus as the ONLY vvay to get rid of them. These above traits vvould explain their ability to kill off 2 vvhole legions of Astartes & their Primarchs, implyed is 1 primarch out of pride & hubris kept attacking them on the ground rather than bombarding them from the safety of orbit . Note, not all the legion vvas destroyed & leftover astartes vvere amalgamated into the 13th & other legions. Also itcan beinferred that 1 primarch vvas lost in the vvarp vv/his vvhole ship. Novv let me run as posting this info has tipped off the Inquisition & Im running to the Arvus parked atop the hab block i dvvell in before they kick in my door.
