I Learnt Warhammer Lore | What is Warhammer 40,000? | Timeline of 40k Lore Reaction 

I just did the math...the emperor has effectively eaten the souls of almost 4 BILLION psykers

You nailed the theme and purpose of Bricky's 40k videos on the damned head. These are not meant to be comprehensive guides, they are hooks. They are meant to grab the attention of normies and explain the barest bones, leaving more than enough cool shit for you to explore at your own leisure.

for correction Khorne, Tzeentch and Nurgle were not born in the Middle Ages but they became sapient before they were driven by instinct as some form of God Beasts

*IN THE EMPEROR'S DEFENSE!* He did not actually FORCE Perturabo into being a siege specialist. What the Emperor did was he went to Perturabo and told him 'You are my Lord of Iron. I trust you and your Legion to handle the most thankless jobs that no one else would willingly take and be the unsung heroes of the Crusade, because I trust you not to break under the pressure and do what needs to be done for us to succeed.' The Emperor didn't tell Perturabo that he should only engage in siege warfare, nor did he tell him to scour all the worlds he conquered, do nothing to ingratiate himself to the wider Imperium, or have him and his Legion never take a well-deserved vacation, and he CERTAINLY did not tell Perturabo to have 10% of his Legion be beaten to death by the other 90% for the crime of simply not being good enough before his reunion with them. In fact, when this happened and EVERYONE was demanding that Perturabo be censured and punished for this atrocity, the Emperor DEFENDED Perturabo and said that it was Perturabo's Legion to do with as he saw fit. The Emperor trusted Perturabo IMMENSELY, but Perturabo expected far more praise for his efforts than he ever received and blamed his own choices on his father, claiming that the Emperor had forced him into everything, when serving with the Iron Warriors under Perturabo became considered a punishment that bordered on a death sentence. This reputation earned the Iron Warriors the nickname of the 'Corpse Grinders' and eventually saw to it that only Penal Legions, criminals forced into being soldiers as atonement for their crimes on pain of death, would ever serve with the Legion. Perturabo and the Iron Warriors didn't break from the pressure. They BENT, and they continued to bend until they caved, and the Iron Within wasn't as strong as the Iron Without.

So Tia slipped up a bit on the Mechanicus. The Cult Mechanicus, or the Cult of the Machine, has ALWAYS been called that, but its followers, the Tech-Priests of Mars WERE originally called the Mechanicum. After the Schism of Mars that saw the Mechanicum split along Traitor and Loyalist lines, the Loyalists became the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Traitors became the Dark Mechanicus, although some among the Dark Mechanicus would probably argue that they still are the Mechanicum and the Loyalists are pretenders openly admitting their inadequacy by allowing themselves to be called the Mechanicus. However it DOES make sense as to why they would call themselves that, as the lowest level of Tech-Priest is referred to as an Adept or Tech-Adept, so the change is not terribly drastic and helps Imperial citizens recognize them as an organization with significant authority. The other thing Tia slipped up on is the autonomy of the Adeptus Mechanicus. As it turns out, they are STILL a separate organization from the Imperium of Man, they are NOT part of the Imperial hierarchy and NO ONE, not even the Emperor himself, the Primarchs, or the Inquisition, is legally allowed to do ANYTHING to a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus without causing a political incident, which is something the Mechanicus use as political leverage when people start making demands or accusations towards them. This obviously doesn't stop assassinations of Mechanicus personnel from happening, nor does it prevent 'unfortunate and/or tragic accidents and circumstances' from happening to the Mechanicus; such is the way of politics. However the Mechanicus CAN be reasonable, having the Fabricator-General of Mars as the politically representing the Mechanicus as a High Lord of Terra, and they use the threat of excommunication and exile from the Adeptus Mechanicus as a tool to keep their members in check and to allow the Imperium or the Inquisition to carry out justice if the Mechanicus is unwilling to do so itself, although the Mechanicus do frequently self-police and there are several Ordos of the Inquisition devoted to investigating the Mechanicus for signs of heresy and cooperating with the Mechanicus for this purpose. And because there's TECHNICALLY nothing stopping a member of the Adeptus Mechanicus from becoming an Inquisitor should another Inquisitor feel they show promise, these theoretical Tech-Priest Inquisitors(Tech-Inquisitors? Inquisitechs?) COULD be used by both the Imperium AND the Mechanicus to police its personnel, however the Mechanicus would probably excommunicate, exile, or even execute any such Tech-Priest if their loyalty to the Adeptus Mechanicus was ever in question, so such individuals are probably exceedingly rare and probably leave the Mechanicus shortly after receiving their new title.

Fun fact, the page that Tia quotes at the end Bricky also quoted pretty much verbatim at the beginning of one of his other videos (the one of all the factions), which may also be why he didn't quote it exactly again in this one.

fun fact there are actually depths of the warp that even the gods do not dare to venture into...areas where literal gods...are scared to go into...let that sink in

For the record, Khorne and Nurgle spawning in medieval europe is objectively a stupid writing decision. Especially after considering the way bricky puts it.

It's very nice to see a react of people who know Warhammer lore and actually care about the content they're reacting too :3 It's a rarity on youtube

Ive been in the warhammer community since I was 7 thanks to my dad. I have watched lore videos, read books and played the game for so long now(salamanders best bois.) Im also very happy just how much traction 40k is getting and hope this will only get better from here.

This is why I consume my warhammer 40k lore via videos while I play games

I learned WH 40k from If the Emperor has a TTS by Bruce Alfabusa and it’s a comedy series that is mostly memes and tells lore of said universe

@49:03....... also, the female perpetual geneticist named Erda who was working with the emperor to make the primarchs... kinda freaked out when she saw where this was all going (via some potential chaos fuckery and remembering how he handled a sentient superweapon in the past) and kicked the power strip to the safety wards just in time for chaos to attack.

WoW actually took major inspiration from the 40k books

im sure others have suggested this but i would recommend watch pretty much all of Bricky WH40K videos, he has 2 that explains all the playable factions in the game, 1 about the different Space Marine legions and their primarchs and many other videos

I learned about 40K stuff baldermort 40k and adeptus ridiculous both good channels in their own way. And I’m still learning stuff from them

While to many furries in the ball pit did not create the warp, it is basically the origin story of slanesh.

41:50 nope, it was always called the Cult Mechanicus. That was what the religion was always called. Only the name of the organization changed from Cult Mechanicum to Adeptus Mechanicus

“…because it’s so intrinsically vast.” That’s what scares a lot of people but it isn’t as intimidating as it sounds. It’s like learning anything here in the real world. I don’t have to know about the history of music in South Asia to be able to pick up a guitar and learn to play. 40k works the same way. You don’t need to know the history of the Imperium of Man to learn about the Eldar. Dive into what interests you, and learn from footnotes as you go!

i think makari's confusion about the primaris living for half as long was a slight misundrstanding pertaining to the primaris specific dreadnaught, that specific type that kills them over time

5:51 yah its just evolution, the old ones were just the very first species in the galaxy to achieve that godlike state through evolution. And every psychic capable race in the galaxy has the ability to achieve that god like state like the old ones, even humanity, through millions of years of evolution, if they survive dat long.

Welcome to Warhammer 40k there a toxics,.there are chill people, we suck,.we are great, hope You can enjoy

There is now no turning back

I see guest goblin know about Tsara'Noga the Outsider, the only C'than who dont been shattered by Necron Revolt. Only couse Tsara went insane by eating his fellow C'than and left the Galaxy crying and most likely after milions of years spawn children of infinite hunger

oh look a slanesshi daemon and a ork knob learning things...."grabs black templar bolter"

we got another one

THE GLOVE HAS SPOKEN, BROTHERS!

I will concede that Magnus had the best of intentions, but he did do much wrong

Magnus did a lot of things wrong

5:26 T H E S P A C E F R O G S

While this is just a "starting enjoyer" video, I'd love for you to dig deeper into the Ogryns(huge brutes yet soft lads), the Leagues of Votann(DRG space dwarves with sentient robotic companions), and the Farsight Enclave(Tau but more weebish, Mecha/melee enjoyers, and arguably better than the normal Tau.)

Most of WH40k people I know, know that most of the misconception are not exactly right but don't bother to correct them cuz its funny

So here's a theory (dunno if it exists already), is it possible that because the golden throne is keeping the Emprah barely alive, he can't resurrect, thus preventing something similar like Saint Celestine from happening (Not really knowlegable about Saint Celestine lore, just know the gist of it so correct me if i'm wrong)

She never stops talking dear lord

The whole choas gods were created in mediaeval Europe bit is outdated and has been changed if I remember correctly.

Damn tia, tell me how you really feel about lorgar.

holy... this one likes to talk

Hello

That furry theory is dangerously close to canon. Since it was a whole bunch of horrendous degenerates that created the 4th ChaosGod, She who Thirsts and Prince of Pleasure, whose birthing re-opened a hole in the universe leading to the Warp.

Humans where the last effort from the Old Ones, they came to existance just when they where about be destroyed. The last Retcon that no one saw comming and almost everybody gloss over is that Eldar, Orks and Necrons existed at the same time and they where sort of made by the Old Ones, the Necrontyr is a extremly old race that no one knows where they came from aswel the Old Ones and the C'Tan, but the Eldar and Orks are sort of made by the Old Ones cuz in the old lore they Where made by them but now, now is like 50/50. Humans came just when they died and they are like the last hope of the Old Ones like shooting life everywhere before they where gone, maybe the rest of the races where destroyed by the Eldar, Orks and the Age of Technology humans during 10k to 25-29k like the Interax. But of course, a common citizen of the Imperium would say that am lying. -Alpharius.

Yes, Magnus did nothing wrong… He was told to do nothing, and he did that wrong

Old ones weren't racist new lore is saying they looked into the future and like the Jedi from Starwars didn't see it properly and thought if they cured them they would become the necron when it actually would pf changed everything

It's silly to say that the 40k lore is "this way" and not otherwise. Especially when it comes to old lore like the creation of the Emperor. The lore is constantly changing through retcons or unreliable narrators. This is not a new development either. That was the case 40 years ago and it is still the case today.

Just read New lore arks of omen , old lore badab war 😅

52:35 😳...😰....😨....😱.....Watch your profanity.

The way the Emperor is born is not cannon atm/Anymore . So the Shamans killing themselves isn't necessarily true anymore. Luetin09 goes into it a lot.

Ahh It amuses me how many people.. and especially vtubers of recently Bricky has gotten into the Wonderfully horrible world of Warhammer XD

Robot girlyman

Check it out Tenkafu MA

Look.. I like watching reaction / learning videos, but friend... You talk waaaaay too much. Maybe watch a bit more, and interrupt a whole lot less, until you've at least concluded the storytellers context of the current subject.. :/ Edit: Never mind.. This is unwatchable.

Oh lord, its another "female" vtuber...
