"BETRAYAL" || UNOFFICIAL THUNDER WARRIOR AND CUSTODES AUDIO || STORY BY KILL TEAM HUNGARY 

By the throne this is phenomenal

The Emps "We must obliterate the Thunder Warriors...they are unstable" also the Emps "I made the World Eaters, and they were butchers before they ever met angron"

God I love the irony of humanity's finest saying "THEY are human after all" . And I chuckled a little when a dark angel said "geneseed of the fallen" nice foreshadowing. Great content

A little Trivia for you fan fiction fans out there: - Shield Captain Azhlan Uruk was taken by the Emperor in his infancy from the Ararat region thus his name was chosen from real names given to people in that region even today. - the Becephelus was in fact the Emperor's flag ship. - "From Golden Light" is a Custodes Tactic from the 8th edition Codex Custodes. Its basically their way of deep striking troops into battle via teleportarium. - Dark Angels were chosen as acting legion so I could make a joke about recovering the gene seed of the "Fallen". - Captain Melian was an actual Captain of the Dark Angels in the Horus Heresy. - This story ties in well with the novel "Valdor" and "The Last Church". - in "Valdor" the investigators of the then High Lords of Terra find scattered remains of Raptor Imperialis and Lightning sigil marked armour pieces on Mount Ararat, fueling their suspicion that the Emperor had disposed of loyal imperial forces and must be held accountable. Looks like the orbital bombardment wasn't quite enough to destroy all the evidence ;) Hope you liked my story!

So Dark Angels have been killing allies from their very first mission.... lol

So,... A warrior's death is to be betrayed by your king at the exact moment you secure his final victory. Just one more reason to hate the emperor and his Custodes.

I love lore on the Unification Wars from 40K so much It's an era we only have the faintest glimpse and idea of but it has do much within it

Are we blind? Deploy the love and Support!

"I empty the MAGAZINE of my guardian spear" I appreciate the fact that KTH knows the difference.

I always feel a little for the Thunder warriors. A draw of a tear yet not formed

"A warrior is raised from the moment of birth for the day when they will die, the training grounds are our cradle and the battlefield our tombs, that has always been the way," - what is to be a Spartan,

This doesn't note that the Custodes did have losses and waited to face the Thunder warriors until they had run out of ammo.

Impossible. There's no way you can field a 100 custodes. That's just way too many points! In all seriousness: beautiful work!! That last sentence sent shivers down my spine.

The Astartes coughs. Blood flows down his chin before slowing to a trickle. The spear is wedged in his chest. He suspects two of his longs and one heart have been punctured. He also suspects he has been speared all the way through and out into the power pack. It is a beautiful weapon, how honored he was to have his life stolen away by such an elegant weapon. The weapon of a god, or the son of a god. He raises one hand and places it on the shaft of the blade. Traitor! A deep voice, much deeper then his snarls before yanking the spear to the right out of his hand. The Astartes let out a strangled cry of pain, before replacing his midnight blue gauntlet back on the spear. You dare stain the honor of my sacred weapon with the touch of your traitorous hand? The voice speaks again. The Astartes looks up into the golden armored helm of the warrior who had killed him and grins, a goblet of blood pour's out. Internal bleeding, they both knew he did not have much longer to live. He tries to speak but chokes on his own blood filling his mouth and spends much time, too much time of what little life he had left spitting out phlegm and crimson to speak. I...if my mere gauntlet on shaft of your weapon is a dishonor to it, then does my blood which stains it now not taint it beyond repair and mark you yourself a heretic-the Astartes says before gasping in pain again before laughing as the spear is driven deeper into his flesh. Why are you laughing? the golden warrior roars. Commanding the traitor to answer him. Suddenly the Astartes eyes seem to focus and he stares back up into the emotionless faceplate of the Custodes. Cold, malevolent black eyes meet impassive golden mask and the traitor Astartes laughs as he explains. Because you now understand! Because you finally understand what it is like to be betrayed. All these centuries, all these millennia my "brothers" and I, he sneered the word brothers, have been honing the art of treachery into a fine point. Ever since we learned the truth of our "beloved" Emperor, what he had done, would he would do to us, why he was so contemptuous of us for doing what he bred us to do. Ever since then all my dreams have been of this day. For ten thousand years! The Astartes laughed loud and madly once more before going quieting to a light chuckle and heavy breathing. This is why? This is why? The Custodes repeated his shout of distain. You laugh at your own demise because you believe you have won some petty quarrel against us and our rightful lord that had only ever existed in your head until you made it a reality. No...the dying Astartes whispered. I thought you were supposed to be better then us. Smarter, stronger, faster. You certainly got the latter two but the former...not so much. The dying traitor said with a chuckle. I did this...because I thought it would be fun to see what happens when you take the Golden Lions of the Emperor and bring them down to my level. I am nothing like you! The traitor roared in rage while twisting his blade abruptly and dislodging it from the traitors chest and raising it over his head like an executioner. The traitor grinned and with his last breath spoke his final words. Then tell me who stands victorious but forever a bitter vengeful husk with nothing to show for his struggle? The spear stabbed down and tore into and through the traitors remaining heart. You may think that you have beaten me! You may think that you have broken me! But I will remain as I have always been! The word of the Emperors will! What is your traitorous ilk compared to that? The Custodes ripped the spear out of the space marines body and the traitor fell back silently, lifeless, dead. As the Custodes limped away something impossible happened. Despite having both his hearts cut out, despite having died the traitor drew in breath one last time and spoke his true final words. Atta boy...The traitor breathed out a sigh and this time finally, permanently, died.

Absolutely fantastic buddy. Shame what happened to the Thunder Warriors, they were loyal soldiers and had shortened lifespans due to genetic flaws anyway, the Emperor did them dirty.

Holy sh!t .... ( a warriors death) 1000 thunder warriors vrs 100 custodes. Dang

Thus upsets me, how could the emperor's talk of traitors at all and yet betray the ones who gave their lives to you.

The 1st and 7th Legions may be the only astartes that are not hated and distrusted by the Custodes.

Bill Murray was a Thunder Warrior? Wow. "Thunder Warrior training, sir!!!" Anyone remember his film "Stripes"? ; )

Karma is a bitch. The Emperor had the same fate.The Bastard. They didnt deserve such fate.

I watched Majorkill's Thunder Warrior lore video and wanted to learn more about the Thunder Warriors but damn This was really cool

It's hilarious that he disposed of the Thunder Warriors. They were perfect, absolutely ideal anti-Chaos Marines. They, doomed for being "unstable" are replaced by Astartes who have flaws like Blood Thirst, madness, geneseed taint, and are led by madmen like Konrad (without primarchs, good luck generating more). Half of these primarchs and space marines fall to chaos/the warp, and for all that, are weaker in general, unable to easily dispose of Orks or Tyranids, whose weaker bolter weapons struggle against Necrons. Had he stuck with the Thunder Warriors, the imperium may not be "better" but it would be a lot safer from external threats.

As an amateur "audio-book creator" myself, this is a magnificent piece of work ! BRAVO !

I am LITERALLY having goosebumps. It is more than I could hope for, excellent work and it is was an honor.

As much as the thunder Warriors were barbaric monsters that slaughtered innocent people to unite terra, the emperor still did a fucked up move. I mean Turning these people people into degenerative monsters that would be thrown away for a "clean slate". Then again, it was probably for the best given how unstable they were...but arent all Astartes monsters like the thunder warriors? Arent they just better looking and stable tbh? Well...except salamanders. They are the good boiz. The best boiz

Another great video. Making the Thunder Warriors sound more gruff, deep and savage, while the Custodian spoke properly, and through the vox speaker of his helmet (as the Thunder Warriors MK1 power armor didn't have that) was a great touch. It combined with the rest of the dialogue adds very good contrast to help drive the point home that the Thunder Warriors are what they are, savages, barbarians that are hard to control, and why they must be killed off for it so that humanity may move forward. Same goes for the Dark Angel. Also, showing how out of league the Custodians are to the Thunder Warriors, even when greatly outnumbered by showing reaction time from the Custodian and the Thunder Warriors as event occurred was very impactfull. Only criticism I could think of would be the Dark Angel himself, as (from what I know) they would have not even been known as the Angels of Death at that point, but just as the First Legion, and he would not have wings adorning his helmet, as it would not be apart of the legions culture at such an early point. The Legions acquiring different names and performing cultural based modifications to their armor would come later on in the coming crusade for all of them, but this early, they more or less would be rocking unpainted, unmodified armor. At least as far as I know, so feel free to correct me if I am wrong, I get all my lore second hand of RU-vid, Fandom wiki, ect. Over all, another great video. This one seems to be getting popular remarkably quicker then your other videos (2 days so far and already at 1.5K), looks like people are finally starting to discover you. Kinda ironic in a way, you do a video talking about the events leading up to the launch of the great Crusade (a great event of expanding) and your channel may be about to do the same from how popular this video is. You'll be at 1000 subs before you know it. Keep up the good work.

"An exquisite tale, thankfully my tear ducts have long since rotted."

All the Emperor had to do was give them progenoid glands that he gave the SM and all would've been well.

How have I forgotten to comment on this yet?! I'm going to hand-wave the lore-errors and just say that the opening: "I raise my fist and behind me a thousand marching footsteps suddenly come to a halt," is one of the best opening-lines to a 40k store I've ever read.

The Custodes, the first Traitors.

Jesus Christ this gave me goosebumps! The thunder warriors and Custodies voice is phenomenal!! I have listen to this more times than I can explain.

"Understood....NEUTRALIZING..."

Loved this. Reminds us why you don't fight the Emperor's Legion. Thunder Warriors, Astartes, Primaris or even Grey Knights don't stand a chance. Ave Imperator

I can never forgive the Emperor for this...

I always wondered how many Custodes died executing that order. Got work.

You guys have me drooling, in a frothing battle rage this is amazing!!

Keep it coming!

Brother, I had missed you so much! AND WHAT A RETURN!! THis is so AWESOME!!! Great topic!!

Outstanding. Will watch "The Last Church" next now.

I've probably listened to this at least 10 times by now, and I still get chills every time.

I love your spin on this , you stay faithful to the thunder warriors were wiped out by custodes , but the honourable death thing ! Totally genius 👏

"Execute Order 66"

Damn, those stories get better and better with every entry!

You know, the Emperor purging the Thunder Warriors might make senses IF he didn't allow the World Eaters and Night Lords to rampage across the galaxy.

Awesome! This event in imperial history has always caught my attention. Really makes me think about the emperor. Thanks

Embroidered protect my years I've never heard something so beautiful in my life

God I would KILL for you guys to do a video of the Emperor giving a speech to the legions the day the Great Crusade begins

This narration is amazing!!! I felt feelings I didn't know that I was capable of. Thank you.

Wow! This was freaking awesome experience, and perfect Because im familiar with the stories this ties together. Thanks man! You are so Getting my sub

Dope, storytelling, and voice acting. Keep up the brilliant work!

Your work is amazing. Been one of my favorite warhammer channels since I got into the lore. You, a border prince, the amber king, Baldemort, Oculus...a few more. You guys make the experience immersive and palpable. Give it the breadth and the depth it demands. The quality is praiseworthy and appreciated.

Loved that Dark Angel voice

oh, wow..one of the very first "Emperor was a shitty father" moments; could've just as well used them in the battles to come from the stars..and simply not replenish their ranks.

This is one of my new favorites..wow....what a great story!!!

Damn son- this is really good

Awesome. Small correction, the 1st legion would only gain the name Dark Angels upon reuniting with its Primarch

You dare use my own techniques against me favorite son The emperor after learning of the istivan 3 atrocity and the Dropsite massacre. Probably

Blood of Dorn! Excellent work brother!

Thunder Warriors deserved better. Great short story, I hope for a much longer one about the Warhounds fighting the Thunder Warriors

Emperor of Mankind: Execute Order 66! Constantine Valdor: By you will my lord!

I wish for a whole damn audio book of THIS! Of at least seven hours length! This is freakin' awesome!

Wow ! Absolutely incredible!!! Glad I found this channel Well done !!!

Between the detailed writing and the quality of the voice acting, I really felt like I was there at Mount Ararat

Bet a few thousand of these chaps in stasis vaults would have been handy when Horus came to visit much later. Some updated armour and wargear and off they go in a blaze of glory curb stomping Chaos stooges.

I dont get why though? Couldn't the Emperor have used them as a vanguard or fodder in the great crusade, feels like a waste of good soldiers

Shivers down my spine..such an excellent narrator

Such good voices such a great video thank you again!

This was incredible! I hope you guys continue to make more like this

Thanks!

Brilliant - thank you!

Thank you. This is great!

Wow.. just listened to this masterpiece... Well Done!! Now I must hear THE LAST CHURCH With this new, secret lore

No man who died in service to the Emperor died in vain.

thank you

Much honour and purity seals! 👍🏻

Excellent story and well delivered!

i do like how this reminds me of the simple truth. The Imperium was a rotten nightmare before it even reached Mars. no foundations. Nothing Stable. Just a giant staircase of bones, both the enemy and the loyal, descending deeper into hell. Forever. man i love this setting.

Great story and narration! Subscribed!

This was so enjoyable to listen to!!!

Thank you RU-vid for his recommendation, +1 sub. Would love to hear more 30K stuff.

Excellent stuff. What was that music playing in the background during the battle scene?

instant subscribe and share!

holy FUCK this is good

Thank You. Just...Thank You.

The ending line made this so damn good.

This is so good

Excellent

"He WILL replace you once you outlive your usefulness." Adeptus Astartes looks at Primaris

That's why the false emperor must pay

Unforgivable, grimdark for grimdark's sake.

AWEAOME WORK

Sweet merciful Emperor (beloved by all) that got me pumped!

Ok so as a Dark Angel lore buff I have to state here. They where called just and I quote “the Frist” at this time. Not Dark Angels and they looked like normal Space Marines of the Legions In MkII just with a Blavk Coat of paint and silver trimmings

The Emperor of mankind protects.... Like f++k does he.

Not gonna lie, having the Dark Angles bring down the last church doesn’t hold nearly enough weight as the Thunder Warriors. The burning of the church was seen as savage, matching Urea’s story about how monstrous they were to all those that stood in their way. However, replacing that with the Dark Angles is at best a disservice.

The Golden Age of the Imperium begins with betrayal and so it ends with betrayal.

The emperor is proud

Amazing job man

Ohh yeah... When I read this it was awsome... But this is epic!! Moooooore!!

All I'm going to say is...DAMN that was good..A Rouge trader era player
