I fear the chaos gods have tempted brother Baldermorts immortal soul. May the emperor preserve you Baldermort. *Cocks boltgun* (I don't judge, man's gotta eat etc)
He is tainted, brother. We can only offer him the Emperor's mercy as is dictated by our order. Rest well brother, forgive me as I must perform my duty.
,@UCPXxOXcICyvV8ahGCRXWrBQ There are no "legions" Inquisitor. I am a proud son of DORN! HIS BLACK TEMPLAR, we wear no Aquilla for we are HIS symbol. WE stand where no other dares, WE hold our ground where other falter, WE roar our defiance against the Galaxy that hates us, WE meet the enemy head on to annihilate them. To wipe them out of existence, Inquisitor, it is our creed, duty, oath, and honor.
insta crapped on the narrative, imagine filling your kids bedtime story with sponsors. half way through "and a word from our sponsors, RAID SHADOW LEDGENDS!!...."
“It’s was the perfect day” Space marines really are the best boys when it comes to the primarchs and big pops Emperor. They sound almost like children with glee at the chance to spend time with their elders.
I’m a nurse working during the covid outbreak. It’s a stressful time, but your videos help me relax in the evenings and help rejuvenate me and take my mind off of the dangers of my job. You are a truly talented storyteller and narrator, wise beyond your years, and an overall absolutely fantastic bloke. Thank you for your content, you are making a difference to me.
Astro4220 thank you fir say my the brother Astro. And, of course, thank you fir your service, the risk you are taking to help others. It IS appreciated. Be careful and sleep well. The sleep of he just. :).
Abandon lands on Terra , walks up the stairs to the emperor , all his vile minions standing below him , watching him and awaiting the moment where he would slay the corpse emperor ... Abandon gets ready to make his move ... suddenly he stops ... Abandon: BUT FIRST LETS THANK OUR SPONSOR RAID SHADOW LEGENDS , WHERE YOU CAN CHOSE HUNDREDS OF CHAMPIONS WHO HAVE ARMS ... *it is said that the emperor killed himself to A steal abandons kill and B end his suffering*
Raid ad aside, the description of that "perfect day" for the Astartes was magnificent as your drama segments always are. The music added to the effect of such a powerful image and lamentation of glories long lost, but still so beautiful as to continue to inspire thousands of years hence. It is very easy to imagine these words coming from a Dreadnought or Bjorn the Fell-Handed himself.
I've always pictured him as The Emperor's personal Iterator who, after enjoying an unnaturally long life, serving faithfully and gaining all the knowledge the galaxy contained, upon his passing, The Master of Mankind had Baldermort reverently reborn as a most unique Servitor. A Servitor retaining all his vast knowledge, striking personality and even his extraordinary vocal patterns, blessedly unchanged. Now Baldermort, recording from the chamber of the Golden Throne, itself passionately presents to us the history and legendary characters, their deeds and the myriad settings of the WH40k universe in fiercely engaging dramatic fashion. But that's just me...😁
Perhaps an episode of your renditions of the great inspirational 40K speeches? Grimaldus on the walls of Helsreach for example. That would be some alpha-level storytelling badassery.
I often wonder - are the space marines of today the same as the ones of the Heresy era? I don't mean literally, except in the case of those traitors whose lives have been unnaturally extended by the ruinous powers, or the primaris, that case is obvious. I mean that the space marines of the Heresy era seemed to be more... human? They laughed more, they grew quicker to anger, their countenance was more the warrior and less the monk. Were the hypnodoctrination procedures post-heresy made more severe, more restrictive, than they had been before? A reasonable precaution, one might think. Or is it merely a reflection in the change of the culture from the Legions to the Chapters?
An interesting point. The first thing that sprang to mind on thinking about it, was how one of the writers (Phil Kelly, maybe?) said on the GW Voxcast that, with regard to Space Marines, the 30k era was about fathers and sons whilst the 40k era is about brothers. So extrapolating that idea, perhaps we can think of the SMs being boys with their dads in the past, but they lost their dads and had to become the grown-ups themselves. An over-simplification, of course, but perhaps it's the right sort of dynamic at play?
The hypno therapy was still pretty severe even back then on terra especially with legions like the word bearer who was taught to hate their bloodline’s heritage and extreme loyalty to the emperor for he saved them this is before lorgar mind you, I think it’s more of the fact that the primarchs walked amongst them that made them more human
Well fighting in a nonstop hell war for 10 thousand years will strip every trace of humanity from someone. Hell krieg lost a lot of their humanity in just 500 years, the only thing left is guilt really
@Lord Admiral Spire I don't think that's true, otherwise the lore probably wouldn't make a big deal about Blood Angels being the longest-living Astartes, and they live to about 1000.
@@WizardJim depending on who you read space marines live for a few thousand years or are immune to ageing. But living for 1 thousand years in the imperiums current state is quite the feat so of course its a big deal even if Dante wasn't a blood angel. traitor marines don't have to put up with constant chaos incurrsions xenos invasion (barring the occasional ork warband because me green and must fight everything)
Baldermort had to try really REALLY hard to make Raid Shadow Legends sound epic, and for the first few seconds I think he did it. Alas, some challenges are too great for even mighty heroes.
The more I listen...the more I appreciate your arrival and continual involvement in this "hobby" of ours. Yours is a significant improvement over the mundane and underdeveloped attempts at presenting the various facets of this, our "universe". Well done, good Sir. Well done.
The story at the beginning was great, your narration really did make me see why such a day would be held so high amongst the Astartes, even more so considering the tragedy that followed that high point.
I am a bit new to 40k, and would like to extend my sincerest thanks to you. I have listened to a great many of your videos, and recently finished your 3 part series of Dorn initially one of my least favored primarchs, but after that I was actually moved it was as if you where one of the legionaries there reflecting on the events firsthand. One of my coworkers is now a 40k fan also thanks to you.
Seemingly I will be to bed early yet again. Early the next morning. I just love your voice, the way you present the it all far beyond the words. As a narrator you, to me, have a talent to lift the vail, to bring a scene to life in a deeply touching way. Not to mention your storys, graspable snippets of a reality beyond horrible. Thank you for the great entertainmend you offer and the hard work and loving dedication to it. It shows.
baldemort congratulation, you have oficially become a profesional youtuber. once you get sponsored by shadow legendsthere is no turning back. I really love your work. A warm congratulation from madrid. I really hope you are having a nice timein these turbulent period. Stay safe, stay at home, and stay by the side of the emperor of manking. All hail the god emperor, and death to the traitors.
From the barely 8,000 subs in which I stumbled on this channel, to the legion of brothers and sisters that have joined us in sitting around the campfire, and now you have risen to achieve a official endorsement and it seems that the lorehammer community at large has acknowledged you and your work. So I ask you chaplain Baldermort how does it feel?
Going to sleep at 1.30 am after studying and get up relatively early or watching the new baldermort video and screw my sleepcycle beyond repair? Choice and being sleep deprived are dellusions of weaker men
I was gonna make a joke about the Raid sponsorship, but then I remembered it was Baldermort and anything he says is ear-melting. You get away with this one, Balder.
One of the long ones. Niiiice. You're the Crypt Keeper of 40k. and yes, Raid is utter garbage, but we all know it at this point, so let 'em keep pouring cash into places of value, er er, I mean, great ad I will totally look into this unique and interesting balanced game I have not heard of before. Yes.
10:05 first edition cover. Never played but I had that book for art. EDIT: back then it wasn’t a crime to wield a Bolt gun as well if you weren’t an Astartes.
True story...i was in the middle of a 3-mile run when this video came on it just as a joke when Baldamort sad "our sponsor" I randomly yelled out "Raid Saddow Leagonds" then had to take a 2 to 3 minute break because I was laughing so hard when that commercial actually play. Keep doing what you're doing Lord Baltimore you're more videos get me motivated to paint & train
Congrats on the sponsor. I detest mobile games but I downloaded it and will use your code. I suggest everyone to do so in support, even if you immediately delete it like I will. You need one of those youtube join buttons Baldy.
Trust baldermort to be the first youtuber I've watched to make Raid Shadow Legends sound interesting 😂 also, amazing video, if you ever want someone for an extra voice to the stories I'd be happy to help 😊
"Give me a hundred Space Marines. Or failing that give me a thousand other troops." -Attributed to Rogal Dorn, Primarch of the Imperial Fists. 'What is your life? My honour is my life. What is your fate? My duty is my fate. What is your fear? My fear is to fail. What is your reward? My salvation is my reward. What is your craft? My craft is death. What is your pledge? My pledge is eternal service' - Adeptus Astartes pledge Glória Imperator et Omnium sanctorum et Angeli mortis Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc et semper et in sæ´cula sæculórum. Amen. “They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give themselves to me. Like clay I shall mould them and in the furnace of war forge them. They will be of iron will and steely muscle. In great armour shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines such that no foe can best them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear.” -- The Emperor of Mankind. 'MY ARMOR IS CONTEMPT MY SHIELD IS DISGUST MY SWORD IS HATRED IN THE EMPEROR'S NAME, LET NONE SURVIVE! ' 'We are the Emperor's Angels of Death, not his Angels of Mercy.' - Blood Ravens Devastator Sergeant Avitus ‘When the Adeptus Astartes find their way barred, they forge a new path.’ - Brother Sergeant Numitor, Ultramarines 8 Assault Company. 'A Space Marine was not without emotion. Some in the Imperium thought of them as automatons, mindlessly executing the will of the God-Emperor, and perhaps some were...' ‘There are warriors among the Chapters who genuinely do not feel fear, but they are rare. To be genuinely fearless means you lose an essential part of your humanity. A warrior without fear is dulled to risk, and therefore to tactics. He takes no account of the limitations fear places on others. He can become cruel. This is one road to the ranks of the likes of the Red Corsairs,' he explained. 'The sentiments of humanity are complex and tangled with one another. You cannot remove one without affecting the others. We do not fear to die, or fear pain - these things are nothing to the Adeptus Astartes. We do not feel the terror that afflicts normal humans. We fear we will fail. We doubt… We are trained and changed and so made bold and careless for our own lives, but we know fear. Our advantage is that we have the weapons to slay it.' - Commander Dante.
Baldermort and Count Dankula are the only raid ads that I have watched all the way through. Congrats on the sponsor Baldermort, you deserve many more 👍.
Baldermort I have to say, that was an emotional roller-coaster of an intro story and really well done. I think I may have shed a tear...a manly one of course!
I played in the late 90s and into the new century. I even made the trip to Games Day in 2000. Having kids saw me loose my passion for painting and crushing the hoards of Chaos with my Blood Angles. You Sir have inspired me to dust of my chapter and buy new brushes and blood red paint. I listen constantly when I can and preparing to crush a hoard of orcs that encroach on my peaceful planet. Thank You for reigniteing my passion for the world of 40K
He drums up the emotion of the victory of Ullanor. "We knew he loved us" The real tragedy is knowing Big E saw everyone on tht planet with the same regard as a wrench or hammer.
That was probably the best Raid Shadow Legends sponsorship I've ever heard, and if there's one word I would typically describe your content with it would be exciting. To say I love your videos would be an understatement, you have a true talent with writing, and it is only augmented by your tireless work.
Matt C I know. It’s just in getting an awful kicking over 2 minutes. Lol. I had expected my share of laughs, at my expense, but the intensity (which I have been removing) is just mental. I obviously eat air and get free internet and housing, according to some. (Not you). Just really disappointed really as soon many others out in mid roll adverts and I do everything I can to avoid that. :(.
I really hope you got all the money before hand. STILL thinkin you're the BEST WH40K tuber. Such authority, such comfort in your voice. I get it; you need money to keep doing what you love. Best of luck.
I always learn something new whenever I watch one your videos Baldermort. Thank you so much. I've been telling my friends about this channel and I've got my little brother into 40k because I shared one of your videos. Thank you for bringing my family a little closer together, and allowing us to find time for some fun.
Just in time for the new 40K edition announcement! And yes, the dichotomy of Space Marines - Humanity's greatest and staunchest defenders, but also those who have forgone their own humanity in order to do so.
One of the great tragedies of the setting is that not enough of the books are from a baseline human perspective, for so much of the more powerful beings in the setting are made that much more spectacular when you’re seeing it from the view of guardsman joe who’s greatest achievement is scoring high on the athletics test to join the guard, than from the space marine captain whose multi-century crusade against the darkness has meant he is no longer impressed when something rips open a tank.
Fantastic video as usual brother Baldermort. As many have said before me by now congratulations on the sponsor, not the brand I had pictured you taking (I have followed another dear listeners suggestion and put your name in the box at Audible) but a positive step nonetheless! Carry on with the good work brother, you pierce through the warp of youtube like the light of the astronomicon in these dark times. But remember to make time for yourself, your loved ones and of course, for fun.
We all need to get this legend more subs! I've been seeing you mentioned more and more even on other 40k lore channels. Keep it up 💪💪 your close to your 50k mark Brother
Paul Wolfley well, it’s a one off, I think, but i desperately need more tech support, packages, books, bills, more visuals. Hoping their generosity can equate to a tangible improvement soon. :). But yeah, we all got bills. But to be fair, I do play it, so it’s not really a biggy. Especially considering the alternative (mid roll adds, shudders. I despise them)
Something I learned as a NCO in the Army, the first step is always the hardest. You can tell soldiers all day to enroll in college, won't happen. Give them a ride to the office and they do the rest. You have all the talent, you just need that first step getting in the door and you'll shine
Paul Wolfley thanks brother Wolfley. Both fir the advice and, of course, for your service. I definitely needed the ride, Mrs B practically shotgun-marched me to the camcorder that first time. Glad she did. :) :).
Subbed since 20k great content even greater voice happy your channel is growing and i think most reasonable brothers and sisters here can withstand some tempting from immaterium at the beggining AND ending of video wolud be nice to no ad content but i understand that wolud require significant donations from other sources patreon etc maybe some time in future WHEN you reach 1 or 2 mil subs :) (well deserved imho)
My elation when baldermort posts is directly proportionate to the length of the video because the quality never suffers with length. 5/5 skulls for the skull throne
Sir, your voice is just incredible, it suits a 100% the grimdark setting of the 40k universe! You almost made me download Raid Shadow Legends, despite all the other channels keeping talking about it! That's the power of this deep tone of yours. Massive thanks from France for all your work!
Btw, you mentioned playing it during your breaks, but do you really take any? As far I can see, it doesn't really look like so. Once again, thank you for your dedication to the community :)
