-Teleports infront of an entire grey knights detachement and asks who broke the armistice? -Grey Knights grandmaster steps forward and asks for forgiveness. -Before anyone can react, Grimnar slices the grandmaster and four other grey knights open like fucking tomatoes. -Refuses to elaborate and teleports back to his damaged battle barge and makes the 10.000 year old flagship of the grey knights eat shit for good measure. What a fucking legend.
@@SvenTviking it is noted many places skilled users can sprint, any terminator could sprint, but the experience makes you better suited to not face planting, though I imagine the average marine already has much grace
Why isn't the Salamanders named the Dragons instead? It irks me to no end. WHY? It would instantly make them so much more awesome and awe inspiring. Anyhuu can some kind soul point me in a direction of a more appropriate venue for the Dragons of Vulcan discussion. Come on I want, Nay need Vulcan to be a flying destruction of superfire, and not a ground crawling bug eating lizard. Am I alone in this?
Khorne definitely would not refer to the space wolves as “ strange “ , have you seen the shit under his command? Space marines cosplaying as werewolf’s are normal compared to shit he has
@@DJROCKSTAZ Sure, while we're at it, let's just bring ALL the heresy we can...Xenos, Mutants...Have at it, boys, girls and various alien monstrosities!
@R O while I get where you're coming from, the inquisition is actually an *essential part of the imperium*. Sure they're a bunch of jerks, but the services they provide keep the empire from falling apart. If I remember clearly, those rejects you play as in Darktide come under the authority of the inquisition.
The image of Bjørn demanding to be teleported up to that ship to break up the battle has always struck me as potentially humorous. Just the idea of an Iron Priest questioning the order, followed by a dreadnought bellowing, "Did I f@#$ing stutter?!?"... well, it makes me smile 😁
You don’t piss off Logan Grimnar. But more importantly, you do not gain the Ire of Bjorn the Fell Handed. Anyone that charges Magnus, and tackles him off the top of the Fang, crushing him under his dreadnought body. Is a badass.
Space Wolves- constantly slandered by being called furries. Are actually a good legion and says "fuck off" to the Inquisition. [Always been my favorite legion.]
People who says that are either edgelord Iron Warriors or just a peasant who cant think for themselves. Space Wolves defenetly one of the best legions, and strongest "natty" (non chaos-sauce) primarch.
Russ is a retard who is basically directly responsible for the emperor getting fucked up and consequently the death of the human race and the dream of the Imperium. Couldn't stop Horus, didn't think twice about killing Magnus (Who is an example of a primarch far stronger than him and I think Magnus is boring as shit) because of his own petty shit and ignorance, his legion are so dead end and mutated they couldn't figure out how to make stable successors, encourages his own space marines to act like toddlers and shit talk other primarchs. It seems like he and his legion just exists to be as grating as possible
months of shame is my favorite peice of 40k lore. inquisition laying siege on fenris: no chapter can stand against the inquisition. logan grimnar: how about a fucking legion.
The video about guilliman meet other chapter master and their legions to give them primaris and how their reaction can be good idea, anyway good video👍
Logan Grimnar sprinted in terminator armor, making strange noises come from the joints. This means that it wasn't the terminator armor powering Logan, it was Logan powering up the terminator. The inquisition understood that they couldn't mess with Logan Grimnar. I'd love to see the space wolves humbling the minotaurs, these guys are beasts tho. Even a custodes was afraid of their chapter master Chapter master of Minotaurs and Logan are some of the strongest space marine ever. Toghether with Kharn, Sigismund, and Dante I have my opinion, that if the strongest humans can take down an average space marine, then the strongest space marines can take down the average custodes. So yeah, in my opinion Logan has a chance to beat a normal custodes, but that would be a really hard fight
Made even more badass by the fact the scene was narrated by the grey knight who broke a deamon primarch's sword and who then proceeded to shit in his power armor at the destruction Logan was dishing out including dropping both him and his partner like they weren't even there while they were mind linked. Respect to the Great Wolf.
@@tirannusmark7ita679 you got a point surprised any stuck around after see this guy not only sprint but then stop and do a standing vertical leap that would put LeBron James to shame while still dragging said tank.
He has one of the greatest, if not most subtle, lines in the emperor’s gift. Let me just set the stage for you: when grimnar meets with the inquisition there is a psyker woman trying to chastise him for not allowing them to study some chaos vessel that they destroyed. He turns to her, looking her dead in the eye and says, “Hush, witch. Don’t make me kill you.’ God damn still sends shivers down my spine reading that.
Space Wolves sure hate psykers; Wolf Priests aren't psykers tho, they channel spirits from Fenris, not at all anything to do with daemons, nope, just friendly animal spirits, yep yep /s i feel like it taps into that whole Norse thing of hating magic, with the exception of Odin's whole schtick about like giving up his eye and the Fates and runes and any other time it's convenient
I like the people saying "there is no wolves on fenris" space wolves : litteraly using thunder wolves for pulling the land boat of their chapter master
Well, I think you're not aware then, that those aren't wolves, but original colonizers of Fenris, that after being gene-modded to be able to survive the harsh climate, devolved and mutated. As such, there are no wolves on Fenris, because those are people. Probably.
@@Miestwin That idea has never been confirmed and since Fenrisian wolves are bigger than both normal wolves and humans it's unlikely that the blending of canid essenses into human genetics would create them. I'm going to offer the counter proposal that the wolves of Fenris aren't wolves because they aren't from Terra. Fenrisian wolves are simply xenos that look like enormous Terran wolves
Yeah if they said: "This is Chaos, this is why it might tempt you, and this is what it will do to you." That would stop 99% of cults from forming. Some especially arrogant people might think they can control it, but still.
@@myself2noone Exactly. My pet peeve is the inquisition. Anyone with knowledge of them and their work must be executed, but they run around shouting' STOP. INQUISITION ' and flashing their badge 📛 If your an imperial commander and some random flashes his badge at you, you have 2 lore accurate options 1: Deny knowledge of the inquisition and get shot 2: Acknowledge the inquisition and get shot
@@myself2noone Even Satanic-panic era of State/Corporate PSAs on the civil public of Imperium's planets prevents 99% of the cult members from even establishing, it would redirect their public attentions to be productive yet healthily growing members of Imperium while having their development (and even innovations) doesn't got corrupted so easily by Chaos This is like horus heresy main problem is due to Emperor of Mankind being a bad dad, so it is humanity mostly messing up themselves for millennias of Warhammer settings, especially during Age of Apostasy, Month of Shame and the times they ruins xenos-alliances from taking down more of Chaos/Warp and Tyrannids/Orks infestations, it could even culling the problems of Drukharis if they could be more civil and patient in diplomacy, it's just idiocracy all around, despite "The End Times"/Wolf Time/whatever it is will probably never happens At least they can go All Tomorrows route but Space Marines looks cooler, Cawl being creatively productive for The Imperium in current 40K timeline is a boon for "movement and progression" as Fanfiction TTS EoM said about Magnus' confessions in episode 19
The Space Wolves were my 1st love in warhammer, but the change that turned them into drunken frat boys turned me away. I still like them tho, just not as much.
@@SandmanofTerra Started playing the Wolves when they were still more "partying space vikings with long teeth and a slight wolf fetish", aka 2nd/3rd edition. Even the 5th edition codex and the background created there was alright. But then this whole super-wolf stuff, integration of the Wulfen etc. happened. Couldn't even argue against the tired "hurrdurr Team Jacob" joke anymore...
going to be honest, inquisition was in the right during the months of shame. Not even looking at what happened to hospital world guilliman set up because he also took issue with the inquisition's post-chaos executions, in the vary book it happens in several of the ships that the space wolves help escape caused warp incursions before they were destroyed. that said, the inquisition was being really stupid in how they went about it. They should have simply told grimnar that it would be 100% on him and his legion to rehouse, quarantine, and monitor the survivors for chaos corruption and it would fall squarely on the space wolves to deal with whatever comes of it. Could have even offered to take some of the guardsmen in as inquisitorial Regiments as a show of good faith since they could never be allowed to go back to their own worlds.
Plot Twist: Khorne planned to give the Axe of Morkai to Logan. As the he is not only the God of Blood but also the God of Martial Pride and Honor. And no one represents these more than Logan ot the Space Wolves. Bloodlust - kills Inquisition leader and grey knight's leaders but still continues to slaughter Martial Pride - Tactically sound in beating Khornate forces plus spared the lives of the Grey Knights and Inquisition after victory Honor - Defended the weak and innocent from the Inquisition
Space Wolves, Dark Angels and Grey Knights fighting alongside each other...now that’s the 40k version of the Christmas truce. Not gonna touch that back by Thorpe though; don’t care much for his style and I haven’t forgiven him for his edlar-novels.
So basically...the Gray Knights kind of saved the day back then, terminators teleporting in... they never saw it coming (the Daemons). The Gray Knights are a bit too cool for school but...they dont seem to be that much of a secret to some of the other marines. Of course the Inquisition had to step in and fk everything up and make the Gray Knights look kind of stupid in this one.
@@SandmanofTerra would be surprised if it always goes smoothly between them and inquisitors. But I do get they respect the law of the imperium to the letter.
From what I read the knowledge of the Grey Knights is handed out on a "need to know" base. Once the job is done any surviving Space Marines gets a "free" mind wipe by the Inquisiton to remove that knowledge from memory.
So ... this first part is all in one book? "the emperors gift"? ... because i obviously am missing this story. And at some point our man Sandman should get some recognition from GWs Black Library for all the sales they propably do because of his videos. So should others maybe. :D
I still think this average Citizen doesn't know about Chaos Thing so incredibly stupid, Not just on a Reallife Perspective but even on a 40K way. I am pretty Sure, there is even a children's Song about Chaos in the 40K universe.
there are planets who know and planets that don’t, obviously a planet like Cadia that is bordering the eye of terror knows of chaos and is taught to hate them, but planets that don’t and won’t know won’t be told.
As a son of Russ, I completely agree with your depiction of Lion's return leading to some suspicion for Russ returning as well. My fan theory has been that the Nachmund Gauntlet falls, leaving the Imperium Nihilus eternally trapped, prompting Russ to return from 10,000 years of fighting in the Eye. My hope, as a hobbyist, is that Loyalists get a primarch model to rival Morty, Magnus and Angron. I want a Beast Primarch! A Russ who has aged, who has been obviously tainted by chaos, but whose honor and virtue make him an undeniable tool for tne imperium. I like that it can undo the recent codex-compliance in a way that would please the long-time wolves players, while also bringing a new moral quandary for the Imperium.
This is one of the many things I never understood. How is Logan not corrupted by the Khornate Axe and Fulgrim a Primarch got corrupted by the Laer Blade?
There is a difference tbf between a chaos weapon and a daemon weapon. Though I think it certainly does show quite the character that Logan hasn't been corrupted
I think its more to do with Fulgrim already being weak, filled with self-doubt and the like. That combine with the prophecy that half of the Primarchs had to fall to chaos. Would imo make Fulgrim more easily corrupted than a staunch chapter master. Primarchs aren't the best at everything remember, for example Drach'nyen itself stated that stars would die before it could even begin to corrupt a single Custodian, but I am sure it could corrupt a Primarch faster.
@@SandmanofTerra But it's still a weapon of Chaos. It's still daemonically corrupted. The only difference is that the Laer Blade had a Daemon of Slaanesh inside it, while the Khornate Axe is IMBUED with the powers of Khorne. It literally has Khorne's power running in the Axe and Logan is not corrupted. I feel like Khorne can corrupt Logan with the snap of his fingers, but for some unknown reasons does not want to.
I just got to say. I fell in love with Warhammer 40K Lore before I even knew what it was. Space Wolfs are my favorite if I was ever to play. Why does Games Workshop not make any of this into an Anima? just reading isn't enough I want to see Logan sink his fangs into that chaos losers' neck.
I really wanted to not like the Space Wolves because of their inherent cringe, but they are easily in my top 3 chapters/legions (HH) after learning about them.
Grimnar has the rage of a Khornate greater demon, but his absolute loyalty to the Emperor means that every ragefull kill he gets is credited to the Emperor in the warp instead of Khorne.
Lets just say that Third war for Armageddon was very awkward with both Inquisition and Wolfs present on the planet. And when this whole clusterfuck with Celestial Lions happened everyone involved were happy that Wolves were not aware of this situation or things would really become pear shaped for the Imperium forces.
Honestly, Wolftime showed Grimnar to be the stupidest space marine yet, and that's saying a lot. They had to resort to the time-honored Black Library tradition of "tell, don't show," calling him charismatic and a superb tactician while repeatedly doing the least sensible thing possible even before Guilliman showed up. I suppose in that way he's a worthy successor to Russ.
@@SandmanofTerra It's pretty bad with all the space marines, like they'll spend a paragraph talking about how smart they are and then they just do a frontal charge into a pit full of spikes or something, but the wolves really are the extreme of it. At least Grimnar hasn't wiped out a loyal planet or anything I guess...
What I remember all so Logan as well forced Grey knights to tell how they are and what is their chapters purpose at the front of the hole Space Wolfs chapter. And this all so made forced that they and Inquisition cannot mind wipe Wolves when they meet in the battle field. So the Sons of Fenris as well are one of the rare out side of Malleus how know Grey Knights
Are you zara khane? You have a very similar voice. If you are I am very interested in speaking to you, I am a CMHC student and study some things that I think with your testimonial, could help people, especially with both your brilliance and circumstance.
I am not Zara, although have had Zara on the channel funnily enough! You should be able to reach out on Instagram im pretty sure, or RU-vid? Hope that helps
@@SandmanofTerra that's super cool, I will. Happy to see the respect. You had just as a professional GSC video as her which is saying a ton, subscribed and looking forward to more!
I have this image in my head of Grimnar talking to Guilliman and the conversation being something like "You just want to take over command of the Wolves." "You could not pay me enough to want to take command of Leman's Furries alright. What I want is for you to take all these reinforcements and go be somebody else's problem for a while until your father gets home and can keep you guys occupied."
I would love to see Grimmar and Russ standing side by side on the great field of battle especially in font of Johnson and Azireal and Leman steals a victory of Johnson this time and then cleans his clock and tell the DA " when he awakens tells him we are now even"!!!
If only Chaos could be erradicated by simply not letting anyone know about it... But sadly the 4 buggers have a tendency to whisper sweet nothings into the ears of those who will listen.
Lemann Russ is the greatest Primarch and the Lion, or Lionel Johnson (hearing his name sounds like a black-splotation movie character), is a fallen primarch and is chaos undivided.
What i dont understand is, even tho it is undoubtedly cool, wouldnt wielding a khornate axe be considered an act of heresy? After all it is a chaos weapon with corruption potential, even after it was reforged it still had chaos energy within it..
Imagine. Just imagine. This poor bastard Inquisitor lands in the Fang, presumably to "teach the Wolves what's what" and is met by none other than the oldest living being in the whole Imperium, bar the Emperor himself, and the only Imperial subject still living to have ever fought in the Great Crusade. Who also casually happens to inhabit a Dreadnought sarcophagus. That, my friends, is the epithome of a brown pants moment.
The months of shame is by far the worst storyline of 40k (that I know of). As if LG could just run around and kill GK grand masters left and right. The rest of the book was amazing.
Space wolves are bigger Mary sues than the ultramarines. They are big and strong, they are wild and can surrender to the beast, but are also master tacticians. They also protect humans from the inquisition, despite being some of the biggest assholes in the loyal legions. I mean the grey knights are Mary sues and a half. But when they are against space wolves they become cannon fodder
The wolftime book is complete garbage (so sad that Chris Wraight didn't write it) and the piece of lore that says that the Axe Morkai still has Khornate power is so extremely silly, any Khornate taint would have been discovered and the axe would have been destroyed.
